A photograph of a man seated before an ornate gold repoussé backdrop, speaking into a microphone on a stand at right. He wears a brick-red and gold-bordered shawl over bare shoulders, multiple rudraksha malas, rudraksha bands on his upper arms and wrists, a gold chain with a large round pendant, and a red vertical tilak on his forehead. His long dark hair falls past his shoulders and he raises one hand in a gesture while smiling. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, rudraksha malas, ceremonial gold necklace and ochre-red clothing are consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, presented here as an in-person speaker during a discourse.
