A man seated on an ornate gold throne with intricate repoussé carvings and a red-and-black tiger-striped cushion, speaking into a headset microphone while raising one hand in an explanatory gesture. He wears a rust-orange sleeveless robe, multiple rudraksha mala strands across his chest, beaded bracelets, gold earrings, white sacred ash on the forehead and a red kumkum dot. Beside him on the right, part of a painted deity murti or illustrated figure is visible with a gold-bangled raised arm. Probable Swamiji: long swept-back dark hair, rudraksha malas and ornate gold-accented seating, seated in a teaching role.
