A seated man in a rust-red turban and rust-red robe sits on an ornate golden throne (peetha) with a gold-decorated canopy, raising both palms in blessing. He wears a gold necklace and a white-and-pink flower garland. Before him stands a microphone on a stand, and a small framed picture sits on a wooden stool beside the throne. Behind the throne hangs a painted deity backdrop with a blue-skinned figure holding ritual objects, framed by red curtains, stone pillars carved with figures and animals, a golden trident, brass oil lamps (oil lamps) and brass vessels with offerings. The man is wearing a turban, gold necklace and garland, and his robe is rust-red, which together with the golden throne and the wide, ceremonial stage suggests a satsang discourse setting.
