A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with carved peacock finials and a gold lion-shaped armrest at each side. He wears a rudraksha mala and a heavy gold bead necklace, gold bangles on his upper arms and wrists, and a red bindi with white tilak. He gestures with his right hand while speaking into a headset microphone, smiling. A tiger-striped cloth covers the platform in front of him, and a brass oil lamp stands beside the throne. Swamiji (probable): the orange robes, long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and gold necklace are consistent with a discourse setting. Behind him is a gold-toned backdrop with carved temple-style figures.
