A man with long dark braided hair wound under a rust-orange turban with a silver ornament sits on a chair and reaches out with his right arm to touch a gilded brass bull figure (Nandi) with a small arrow-shaped stick. He wears a rust-orange shawl over the shoulders, a bare chest, a long gold-bead and rudraksha mala with a gold pendant, orange beaded armbands, a red-and-gold wrist thread, and a leopard-print cloth at the waist. Blurred seated audience members in white fill the background against a pale wall. Swamiji (probable): the rust-orange turban, long braided hair, ornate gold necklaces and rudraksha malas match the page's identification, seated in the role of a teacher addressing the gathering.
