A photograph of a seated man giving a Bhagavad Gita discourse in front of a white banner reading "BHAGAVAD GITA (The Song of God)" with a painted chariot scene of Krishna and Arjuna. He wears an orange and red turban with a red tilak on the forehead, an orange saffron-coloured robe draped over one shoulder, and a rudraksha mala with a gold pendant. He sits on an ornate red and gold chair holding an open blue-covered book on a wooden stand, smiling. A tall gold lamp stand and a potted green plant stand to the right. The scene suggests a satsang setting. Swamiji (probable): the orange robe, long hair, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold pendant match the appearance cues, and the page names him as present.
