A seated man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, wearing a rudraksha and pearl mala with a gold pendant, sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a zebra-striped cushion. He has long swept-back hair, a white-and-red forehead mark, and gold hoop earrings, and he smiles while reading a folded white paper. A young boy in a white shirt and orange shawl stands beside him, placing an orange garland over the man's shoulder and holding pink flowers. A white backdrop with gear graphics frames the stage. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and gold necklace.
