A man in a reddish-brown turban with a silver crescent moon and a feather ornament stands with palms pressed together in namaste, head bowed. He wears layered white and pink flower garlands, gold armlets and bangles, and a red-brown cloth draped over bare shoulders. Coloured string lights and a green screen appear in the background of an indoor satsang hall. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues are the long swept-back hair, ornate turban with crescent, garlands and gold armlets, so this is a presumed in-person presence in a ritual greeting posture.
