A man sits cross-legged in meditation on a low wooden seat in front of a black stone Nandi bull statue garlanded with yellow and red flowers. He wears an orange saffron shawl drawn over his head and body, a red bindi on his forehead, and a long rudraksha mala, with hands folded in his lap and eyes closed. Behind him rise a white tiered pedestal and a tall copper-coloured pillar among palm trees. A grey and orange backpack rests on the right, and small heaps of ash lie on the ground. The man is the only person visible, and the outdoor setting suggests a ritual or meditation gathering.
