A seated teacher in orange robes speaks from an ornate golden throne decorated with lion-shaped armrests and a golden arched backrest. He wears an orange turban with a small red bindi, a wrapped orange shawl, and a long gold bead mala, and raises his right hand in a gesture while sitting cross-legged. Multicoloured flower garlands in red, yellow, white and green hang over the throne, and a painted arch with floral and geometric patterns forms the background. A lapel microphone is visible. The orange-robed figure has distinctive turban, shawl and bead-mala cues, so this is a probable appearance-based match for Swamiji (probable) seated in person.
