A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with carved backrest and red tiger-striped cushions, flanked by gold lion-head armrests. He wears a long ornate gold necklace over a dense rudraksha mala, gold armbands, gold bangles, and a small wireless microphone near his ear, with white vibhuti stripes and a red bindi on his forehead. His hands are clasped in his lap and he smiles toward the camera. Painted deity figures with raised hands stand at the edges, and a gold and yellow striped cloth lies across his lap. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robes, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace on the throne.
