A photograph of a seated man on an ornate golden throne draped with a striped tiger skin, raising a small ceremonial rod with his right hand. He has long dreadlocked hair wrapped in a rust-orange turban, a beard, a saffron-orange garment over his shoulder, and multiple beaded necklaces and bangles. Beside him stands a young girl in a red sari with a rudraksha mala and a tilak, holding a tall golden trident staff. Seated audience members in white chairs fill the hall, many with hands folded in namaskar. A large screen and red and orange hanging decorations are visible in the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back dreadlocks, an ornate turban and saffron clothing with rudraksha and ceremonial gold ornaments, seated on a throne in the central role of a discourse.
