A seated man in saffron-orange robes, a matching orange turban with a small white jewelled brooch, and a long rudraksha mala with gold beads speaks into a microphone while gesturing with one hand. He sits on an ornate gold throne with a carved arched back and two gold lion figures, draped with a striped tiger-skin cloth and red cushions. Brass oil lamps flank the throne, and a painted mountain-and-temple backdrop fills the stage. A wooden book stand with an open book sits at right.
