A man in saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha mala sits cross-legged in meditation on an orange cushion on a raised platform, eyes closed, hands resting in his lap. Behind him is a white plinth draped with red and white flower garlands around a dark stone Nandi bull with a chain-like necklace, beneath a tall palm tree and a stone lingam-style column. A brass kalasha vessel sits on the ground before him, with a bed of grey ash or stones around the seat. Several people in white clothes sit in meditation nearby, including a woman on the left and a man in white with a yellow shawl on the right, plus a navy and orange backpack. Statues of deities stand in the background under a hazy sky.
