A photograph of a man seated cross-legged in meditation on a raised stone platform in an outdoor compound. He wears a saffron-orange robe and a multi-strand garland of marigolds and beads, with his eyes closed and hands resting on his knees. Behind him stands a red-orange pillared structure with a black stone Nandi bull draped in a yellow-orange flower garland, and a tall copper-coloured pillar. Dark stone statues stand to the left among palm trees, and a brass kalasha vessel sits on a woven mat beside a circular pit filled with ash. Red flags and tropical plants surround the scene.

He wears a long rudraksha mala around his neck and has his eyes closed. Behind him rises an orange brick pedestal supporting a dark Shiva lingam draped with yellow-and-white marigold garlands, with a tall coconut palm trunk wrapped in red cloth behind it. A brass vessel sits beside him within a ring of white stones and a decorative kolam pattern drawn in white and red powder. Several grey stone statues of figures stand along the left, and colourful woven hangings hang from poles at the edges. Palm trees fill the background. The man's clothing is orange and does not clearly show a crown or long swept-back hair, so his identity is not established from appearance.2010-11-15November 20 20102010-11-20A photograph of a man seated cross-legged in meditation on a raised wooden seat over a circular sand pit edged with stones and decorated with pink and white kolam-style lines.
