Two men sit on ornate gold-and-velvet thrones in front of pale yellow pillars and a blue painted doorway with a peacock motif. The man on the left wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl with gold borders, a beaded gold necklace, dark bangles and a beaded headband. The elderly man on the right, seated with one leg folded, wears saffron cloth, a gold necklace, rudraksha beads, gold bracelets and a gold crown, with white vibhuti and a red kumkum mark on his forehead. He gestures with his right hand while speaking into a microphone on a stand, and a rug covers the floor. Probable Swamiji is the seated speaker on the right, identified by his crown, rudraksha mala and saffron clothing; the companion on the left is a seated attendant or disciple.
