A bearded man sits on an ornate silver throne upholstered with leopard-print cushions, smiling and seated cross-legged with bare feet on a silver footstool. He wears a rust-orange turban with a gold ornament, an orange-saffron garment with gold borders draped over one shoulder, and multiple tiers of gold beaded necklaces with a gold pendant, plus gold armlets. A microphone stands at his side, and a silver staff rises beside the throne. Behind him are marigold and rose garlands and a yellow and orange embroidered backdrop. A small framed portrait sits on a side table at left. Probable Swamiji seated as speaker, based on the saffron-and-gold attire, turban and gold necklaces.
