A photo of a smiling man seated in a carved wooden chair with gold-patterned panels, speaking into a handheld microphone during a satsang. He wears a dark maroon-brown sleeveless robe over bare shoulders, a red-brown dot (bindi) and white markings on his forehead, and a beaded bracelet on his wrist. Before him is a table draped with an orange cloth. Behind him a dark carved wooden stand with a large branch-like motif and figurines rises against a red wall. Swamiji (probable): the figure has long swept-back hair, a saffron-maroon robe and ceremonial setting cues, so the appearance-based label applies. A stand microphone is visible to the right. Text overlaid on the photo reads the copyright notice and source credit.
