A man sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with carved arches and a deep red velvet cushion, inside a hall with a warm painted backdrop. He wears a red turban with a fan-pleated top, a red shawl draped over a red robe with gold-striped edging, a red-and-gold mala and gold necklaces, gold armbands and a red tilak on his forehead; his hands rest in his lap and he is seated in a meditative pose while speaking. Beside the throne stand tall brass oil lamps topped with peacock finials, and a water bottle sits near the base. Behind him, a painted figure in ornate red-and-gold regalia gazes upward. Probable Swamiji (appearance cues: red turban, red-and-gold ornate robes and throne), in_person, sitting as the speaker.
