August 17 20162016-08-17A seated man in rust-orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate golden throne carved with a sunburst and two golden lion heads. He wears a rust-orange turban with a jewelled ornament, a long braided ponytail, a heavy gold necklace with a lotus pendant, and gold armbands. He holds a hand gesture while speaking into a microphone on a stand, and a white serpent-shaped staff rests beside the throne. Leopard-print cushions cover the seat, and a deep red curtain stands behind. The scene shows a teaching discourse. The only physical person is the seated speaker, whose appearance matches the presentation cues for Swamiji (probable), with turban, saffron robes, gold necklace and braid. A throne is present, but identity is judged from appearance cues only.2017-09-17 +1 copiesAugust 17 20162016-08-17September 17 20172017-09-17 +1 copiesA man seated on an ornate silver throne with carved floral and animal motifs, set against gold-painted panels.
