A bearded man with long, swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead sits on a brown leather throne with ornate gold lion-headed armrests and a gold-trimmed backrest. He wears an orange-saffron shawl over a leopard-print garment and rudraksha-style beaded cords around his neck, and he holds up a small white ceremonial pillar-shaped object on a silver-and-red tray with his raised hand. He wears a headset microphone and gestures while speaking. Behind him, seated devotees in orange and white clothes fill a bright hall with white draped fabric. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's long swept-back hair, saffron shawl and rudraksha-style cords and bearing on a throne are visible cues, though the face is not used for identification.
