A seated man in orange-saffron clothing reads from an open book on the floor of a small room with yellow walls and a black-and-white checkered marble floor. In front of him stands a microphone on a stand, a brass bowl, a small oil lamp and a marigold garland. Behind them a large gold throne with lion-head armrests holds a framed portrait of a bearded man wearing a saffron turban, rudraksha-style beads and marigold garlands, seated in a meditative pose on a red cushion. Red-and-white garlands hang at the top corners. A timestamp in the corner reads Jan 9, 2022 18:58:53, Uttar Pradesh. The portrait is a depiction of a printed or framed image on the throne, not a physical person.
