A man with long swept-back dark hair and a full beard sits on an ornate silver-framed red throne, bare-chested with a rust-orange shawl draped over his body and a ceremonial gold-toned necklace. He raises his right hand in a blessing gesture and holds a tall silver staff topped with a red-and-gold finial in his left hand. In front of him stands a silver lectern with a microphone. Seated devotees in orange and yellow shawls fill the foreground with hands folded in anjali. Red and yellow draped fabric forms the backdrop. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, distinguished by the long hair, orange shawl and ceremonial necklace.
