A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a gold necklace raises one hand in greeting on an ornate silver throne with lion-head armrests and a repoussé floral backrest. He wears a white vibhuti band with a red kumkum dot, a long rudraksha mala, and a flower garland. Two or three silhouetted people in orange and dark clothing sit in the foreground, facing him. The scene suggests a satsang, with a red-lit backdrop behind the throne. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, saffron robes, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace, consistent with the page reference to a Nithyananda satsang.
