Photograph of a bearded man seated cross-legged on a tiger-striped throne during a discourse, with a crowd of devotees blurred in the foreground. He wears a maroon turban with a jeweled brooch, long dark locks, a maroon wrap over bare shoulders, a leopard-print waist sash, heavy gold necklaces with a gold pendant, and rudraksha malas and bracelets. He gestures with his right hand while speaking into a headset microphone. Appearance cues (long locks, turban, gold ornaments, rudraksha malas) are consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable Swamiji in person, seated on a gilded throne beside a golden staff. Several seated audience members are partly visible.
