A seated man in a red turban with a gold-trimmed fan-shaped top and a red bindi sits on an ornate gold throne with red tiger-striped cushions and a tiger-skin cloth. He is dressed in a red-orange dhoti and shawl with gold borders, wears layered gold necklaces, a gold waist belt and gold armbands, and presses his palms together in namaskar with eyes closed. A gold-and-pink deity murti stands to the right, and a red steel tumbler sits on the dais. Context suggests a satsang setting. A caption overlaid in the scene reads a copyright line for the archive. Pose and dress are consistent with a ceremonial teacher in an assembly hall, but the face is not clearly visible enough for confirmation.
