A smiling man sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with carved lion heads and a gold-and-red backdrop. He wears a saffron-orange robe draped over his shoulders, a leopard-print cloth at the waist, and a long rudraksha mala with a red tilak on his forehead; a small clip microphone is on his face. He holds a rudraksha mala in his hands. A silver trident stands to the right, and red tiger-striped cushions and orange marigold garlands frame the scene. Appearance-based identification as Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and a tilak mark him as a probable presence, seated in a ceremonial throne setting.
