A seated man in a dark red-maroon robe with a gold beaded necklace and gold bangles raises both palms toward the camera in a blessing or teaching gesture. He wears a white forehead marking with a red bindi and sits before an ornate gilded throne with floral and scrollwork carvings. A brass oil lamp hangs in the upper right corner beside several small lamps on the wall. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair, maroon robe and gold ceremonial necklaces suggest the Swamiji presenting a discourse on the Inner Awakening convention.
