A man seated on an ornate golden throne with red velvet cushions and red-and-black striped armrests, raising one hand in a blessing gesture while holding a white-and-red staff. He wears a sleeveless black garment with a leopard-print waistband, a black shawl draped over one shoulder, a rudraksha mala with a pendant, black armbands, and a red tilak on his forehead; he is barefoot. Flanking the throne are painted standing deity figures with raised hands, orange and green dhotis and gold ornaments. The setting appears to be a satsang hall. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala, ornate dark clothing and a throne.
