He wears an orange saffron robe draped over the body, a leopard-print shawl over his shoulders, and a long dark rudraksha mala around his neck with a red tilak on his forehead. His hair is long and swept back, and his eyes are lowered. A brass kalasha-style vessel with a spout sits to his left on a mat with white floral rangoli-style kolam patterns. Behind him are red signboards, potted plants and a red stone pillar in a garden setting. The scene suggests a satsang or meditation session.
