A seated man in a rust-orange robe with a gold-toned sacred thread and a red tilak on his forehead sits cross-legged on an ornate silver palanquin-style throne with red velvet cushions and a carved silver canopy. A microphone stand stands beside him. Behind him hang deep red drapes flanked by gold-painted carved temple panels with figures and animal motifs, and tassels in red, green, yellow and purple hang at the sides. A small gold figurine sits in the lower foreground. The scene appears to be a stage-set satsang session. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair, a rust-orange robe and a gold necklace mark him as the presiding teacher on the throne; the identification rests on these appearance cues.
