A man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate silver-and-wood throne-like couch on a stage, with a leopard-print cushion behind him and a tiger-striped cushion at his side. He wears a long swept-back hairstyle, a white forehead mark, a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace, and extends one arm toward the audience while a microphone stands before him. A silver trident leans behind the seat, a silver lamp and small brass vessel sit on a side table, and a large carved stone pillar backdrop rises behind. Swamiji (probable): the man has long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji at this event, though the face is not used for identification.
