A man seated on an ornate silver throne speaks into a handheld microphone. He wears a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl with a long rudraksha mala draped across his chest, has long dark dreadlocks, and white and red sacred markings on his forehead. His hands are dusted with yellow powder, and a bowl of yellow grains sits on a green banana leaf beside him. A silver lion sculpture stands at his side, and a silver bowl rests in front of him. This is a photo of a ritual setting, with a person (long dreadlocks, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and forehead markings) seated and speaking, shown in a probable depiction of a sacred teaching or offering.
