A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gilded throne with lion-headed armrests and a carved golden backrest, dressed in saffron-orange robes and a yellow-gold turban with a red bindi. He wears a long garland of white, yellow, red and green flowers, a rudraksha mala around his neck, ceremonial gold necklaces and a rudraksha bead mala in his hand. A zebra-striped cloth covers the dais, with marigold flowers at the base. Behind him stands a painted deity murti with raised hands. Several long-haired, swept-back hair cues and distinctive saffron, rudraksha and gold adornments match the Swamiji (probable) appearance label, presented here as the seated speaker of a satsang.
