A seated man speaks into a handheld microphone on an ornate golden throne with a large repousse backrest. He wears a deep red turban, a red-and-saffron robe with gold border, layered beaded rudraksha-style necklaces and a gold pendant. He sits cross-legged on a tiger-striped cushion, surrounded by red and orange flowers in a vase and red velvet pillows. Swamiji (probable): long-established ceremonial cues include the red turban, saffron-ochre robe and layered rudraksha malas and gold necklace, with the page naming him as present; identity is appearance-based only. The background shows golden temple-style decor.
