A bare-chested man in an orange-red turban and saffron-orange shawl stands in profile on a stage, holding a pair of gold-tipped ceremonial horns (ghanta/shankha style) with one hand while the other arm is extended. He wears rudraksha bracelets, a heavy gold necklace, gold earrings and long dark dreadlocked hair swept up under the turban. Blurred seated audience members and a large bright screen fill the background. Probable Swamiji in appearance, based on the saffron shawl, turban, long hair and gold ornaments, presiding over a stage event.
