A seated man in a maroon-brown turban with jewelled pins and a maroon robe speaks into a microphone while raising both hands palms outward in an animated gesture. He wears a long rudraksha-style brown bead mala, a heavy gold necklace with a pendant, a pink and white flower garland, and red beaded wristbands. He sits on an ornate gold throne with a large cobra-hood backrest and red velvet cushions, with an orange vessel on a small side table at left. A red and gold decorative backdrop surrounds the scene. Based on the printed caption and the visible cues of a turban, long beaded mala and ceremonial gold necklace, this is.
