A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver-and-red throne with carved lion-head armrests, eyes closed, hands resting on the arms in a meditative pose. He wears a rust-orange robe, a long layered gold bead necklace with a large gold pendant, and a white tilak with a red dot on the forehead. A small microphone is at his mouth and a Yamaha audio mixer sits in front of him. Behind him, two women in white garments and a bearded man in white sit among a bright hall with ceiling lights. A silver staff stands at the left edge. Visible people: the seated central man plus three others, including a robed woman near the left and a bearded man at the lower right. The image depicts a discourse setting; the seated man is an appearance-based probable Swamiji, identified by long swept-back hair, saffron robe, ceremonial gold necklace and throne seating.
