A seated man in ornate ceremonial dress sits on a gold-carved throne with a deep red velvet cushion, against an orange drape and marigold garlands. He wears a saffron-orange turban with a jewelled brooch and a red tilak, a wine-purple silk garment with a gold-bordered wrap, and multiple strands of gold beaded necklaces and gold armlets. A small headset microphone is clipped near his face as he smiles and gestures with one hand while the other rests in his lap. The appearance matches the a person cues of long hair, saffron turban, ornate gold ornaments and an enthroned discourse setting, so he is presented as a seated speaker at a satsang or discourse.
