A man with long dark hair, a full beard and a red tilak on his forehead sits on an ornate gold throne with a carved cobra hood and a red cushion, a tiger-print cloth draped over the seat. He wears a rust-brown robe over his shoulder and a beaded rudraksha mala with a gold pendant, and a red thread on his wrist. A brass trident stands beside the throne and a wooden stool sits in front. Brass bells hang from above and a microphone stands at the right against a red curtain, with a red mat and a colourful woven rug on the floor. The man appears to be addressing an audience, and the setting suggests a discourse. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne with long hair, rudraksha mala, gold pendant and saffron-brown robe.
