A seated man in saffron-orange robes meditates cross-legged on an orange cushion placed on a low stone platform in an outdoor temple courtyard. He wears a long dark rudraksha mala, a red tilak on his forehead, and has long swept-back hair. Behind him stands a black stone Nandi bull draped with marigold garlands, flanked by an orange pedestal with garlands hanging from a column. Several grey stone deity figures and carved stone lingams stand on the left, with palm trees and hanging red, blue and yellow ceremonial banners overhead. A small painted panel of religious imagery is visible at left. A bare white-chalk and gravel circle with decorative chalk rangoli borders the seating area. The man is the only person visible.
