A man stands on a stage before a large gold circular arch with ornate relief carving, against a bright red backdrop with red and orange lighting. He wears a leopard-print cloth over the shoulders and torso, orange dhoti-style lower garments, a rudraksha-style bead necklace and bead bracelets on the arms, and a red tilak on the forehead. He holds a silver trident with his right hand and rests his left hand on his hip, smiling. a person cues: long, swept-back hair and a costumed, theatrical presentation with a trident; the photo shows a performance-style staging rather than a seated discourse.
