A figure stands in the centre of a hall holding a silver trident (trishula) upright in the right hand, with a small microphone near the face. He wears a rudraksha mala of large brown beads over the chest, a gold necklace, a gold armlet on the upper arm, and a rust-red wrapped garment with a bare shoulder. His hair is long and swept back, and a red bindi marks the forehead. Behind him a seated audience in white, orange and saffron clothing fills the room, with a wooden wall panel behind. Swamiji (probable): the figure's long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold ornaments match the page's description of Swamiji presenting to the sangha audience.
