A smiling man sits on an ornate gilded throne with carved lion-head armrests upholstered in red and black tiger-stripe velvet. He wears a striped red-and-orange turban with a jewelled ornament, a red bindi, a red-maroon robe with a gold border, layered rudraksha-style beaded necklaces, and beaded bangles on his arms. He has white markings on his arms and holds his hands together in his lap. A small headset microphone is visible near his face, and a water bottle and telephone-style device sit beside the throne. Painted deity figures with raised hands flank the scene. Given the page's identification and the matching cues of a turban, saffron-red robe, and rudraksha necklaces, this is the probable Swamiji seated in a discourse setting.
