A seated man in a rust-brown turban and matching saffron-brown robe raises his right hand in a blessing gesture while smiling, a microphone on a stand near his face. He wears heavy gold temple-style necklaces, a white and pink jasmine garland, rudraksha-style beaded bracelets and a red tilak on his forehead. He sits on a gilded chair draped with a tiger-striped cloth, beside a large golden bull figure and a tall golden trident. Behind him stand golden deity statues with a green backdrop, and a small framed photograph sits on a side table among green plants. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure, identified by his turban, ornate gold jewellery, ochre robes and garland; the tiger cloth and bull figure accompany a discourse setting.
