A man with long dark hair and a full beard sits smiling on an ornate golden throne (peetha) under a red umbrella with gold embroidery and multicoloured tassels. He wears a rust-orange sannyasi cloth draped over his shoulders and a long rudraksha mala around his neck, with a vertical tilak on his forehead and a red thread on his wrist, and he rests one hand near his chin. Golden lion figures and ceremonial brass lamps (oil lamps) and a kalasha-like brass vessel are in the foreground against a red curtain. A purple cushion lies beneath him and a microphone stands before him.
