A seated man in white ritual clothing sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with red, yellow and white garlands. He wears a white turban, a red bindi, a white dhoti with gold border and a heavy gold ceremonial necklace, with long dark hair. His palms are pressed together in namaskar and his eyes are closed. A microphone stand is in front of him. Above the throne hangs a canopy with red, green, yellow and white tassels, and gold lamps are mounted on the dark wall behind. The setting suggests a discourse stage. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, gold necklace and ornate throne match the page's reference to Swamiji speaking at this event.
