A seated man in a red-orange ceremonial robe and long rust-coloured shawl speaks into a microphone on a stand, hands raised before him. He wears a dense rudraksha mala and ornate gold necklaces, bangles, and a red tilak on his forehead. His long hair is piled high on his head. He sits on a chair draped with a striped tiger-print cloth, flanked by green leafy plants. Behind him a large backdrop shows a painted seated deity figure with a gilded crown and pendants, and a bearded figure in an orange robe to the left. Swamiji (probable): the qualifying cues are the swept-up long hair, saffron-orange ornate clothing, rudraksha mala and gold necklaces, and he is the seated speaker giving the discourse.
