A bearded man in a rust-red turban with a decorative pin and rust-red saffron-toned drapery sits on a wooden chair at a large gathering. He wears a long gold-toned necklace with a pendant, beaded rudraksha-style malas, red wrist bands and armlets, and a leopard-print cloth at the waist. He holds a tall golden trident staff upright beside him. Behind him a large screen shows a close-up of a bearded man in a turban; seated devotees in white and colourful clothing fill the foreground and hall. A portrait on the screen is not a physical person. Candidate appearance cues include the turban, ornate necklaces and trident, so this is a person seated in person at a discourse.
