A photograph of a discourse hall where a man in saffron-orange robes stands beside a brown leather throne-style chair, holding a silver trident with his right hand. He wears long flowing dark hair, a red bindi, a heavy multi-strand garland of gold beads, a large gold pendant, gold bangles, and a tiger-striped cloth wrapped at his waist. Seated devotees in white and orange clothing fill the rows behind him, several clapping, against an ornate gold-patterned wall. A Yamaha keyboard sits in the foreground. The man appears to match the appearance-based Swamiji cues (long hair, saffron clothing, ornate gold adornments, trident) and is physically present on stage, so this is a probable identification.
