The backdrop shows a huge printed portrait of a man in orange robes and a leopard-print shawl with a rudraksha mala, beside a painted deity figure in red with a crown and garlands. The words SHIVA SUTRAS appear across the centre. A vase of red flowers sits on a small table at left. Probable Swamiji: the seated speaker shows long hair and saffron clothing with a rudraksha mala, labelled as a discourse with the Shiva Sutras banner. The printed portrait on the backdrop is a depiction.
