A man sits cross-legged on the ground with eyes closed and hands resting in his lap, in meditation during an outdoor fire ritual. He wears a sleeveless saffron-orange garment and a rudraksha mala, and has long dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead. Smoke or ash drifts across the scene, and a small brass vessel sits near him. Behind him, two women in white garments, one with a yellow shawl and one with an orange shawl, sit by the smouldering fire pit. A thatched hut and a pale concrete structure stand in the background.
