A seated man in red-orange draped robes sits on an ornate silver throne with a red velvet cushion, holding a gold-tipped staff in his right hand. He wears a large ornate gold necklace with a central crown-like pendant, gold armlets, red thread bracelets and a tilaka mark on his forehead, with long dark hair and a full beard. Behind him, rows of seated devotees in white clothes with red shawls listen attentively. A tabla-like drum and a Yamaha keyboard sit in the foreground, and a red curtain hangs at the right. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and saffron-red robes on the throne; the page places him at this event.
