A photograph of a man with long, dark, swept-back hair seated cross-legged on a raised stage, speaking animatedly with open hands and a broad smile. He wears an orange saffron robe and a long necklace of large gold beads, with a red tilak mark on his forehead. A microphone on a stand is in front of him. Behind him hangs a light curtain of strung beads with orange accents. Red and maroon tiger-striped cushions and a wooden book stand sit near him on a red-draped dais. Swamiji (probable) appearance-based label applies, with cues of long hair, saffron clothing and gold beaded necklace, shown here as a discourse speaker.
