A photograph of an outdoor sitting, seated cross-legged on a woven striped mat inside a circular raised platform with ash-grey ground and white kolam-style chalk border lines. The central figure wears saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha mala, with hands folded in lap and eyes closed in meditation; a brass oil lamp sits on the left of the mat. Behind him, an orange tiered pedestal supports a black deity murti garlanded with orange and yellow flowers. Several people in white clothes with yellow shawls sit on mats in the background, eyes closed, and a partial figure in white appears at the right edge. Red signboards with white text stand in the background. Probable Swamiji cues: long hair swept back, saffron robes and rudraksha mala, seated in meditation.
