A man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-armrests and a tall gilded back, draped with a maroon velvet cushion and a tiger-stripe cushion. He wears a pale gold turban with a jewelled ornament, a white dhoti-style garment with a gold border, rudraksha beaded necklaces and wrist beads, and a red bindi. A small microphone is clipped near his face, and his hands are folded in his lap as he speaks. A maroon curtain hangs at left and a colourful painted shrine backdrop appears at upper right. Appearance-based cues are a turban, ornate gold seat and rudraksha malas, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated as a speaker during a discourse.
