A photograph of a seated man on a red-cushioned golden throne decorated with a large arch of marigolds and purple and white flowers in red, yellow, green and purple. He wears a saffron-orange dhoti and wrap, a long chain of gold beads and a gold necklace, a gold armlet and a red bindi, with long dark hair swept back. He sits cross-legged, one hand raised near his chin, smiling as he speaks into a microphone on a stand. Behind him hangs a pink and magenta patterned backdrop. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha-style gold bead garland and ornate gold ornaments, presented as the speaker on the throne. A gold ornamental panel sits at left edge.
