A man in a rust-orange turban and matching orange-brown robe sits on an ornate gold throne with a carved, highly decorated backrest, smiling and raising his right hand while speaking into a headset microphone. He wears a long multi-strand necklace of gold beads and brown seeds, a small red bindi on his forehead, and gold bangles on his wrist. A red velvet cushion rests on the throne seat, and a small red bottle and gold-trimmed box sit on the platform at lower left. Behind him a large backdrop portrait shows a smiling figure in a matching orange turban. Swamiji (probable) appears to be the seated speaker, identified by the throne, orange turban and ornate gold necklace, consistent with a discourse setting.
