A photograph of a seated man speaking into a microphone on a stand, raising his right index finger as if making a point. He wears a rust-orange turban with a small white jewelled ornament, a red-orange robe with a gold-yellow border, multiple rudraksha malas, layered gold chains and a large gold pendant. A red bindi marks his forehead, and he wears rust-orange beaded bangles. Behind him is an elaborate gold repoussé backdrop, and the seat is covered in a leopard-print cloth. Swamiji (probable): the seated speaker wears a rudraksha mala, ceremonial gold necklaces and saffron-orange ornate clothing, with a turban, consistent with a discourse setting.
