He wears a sleeveless orange robe draped over one shoulder and a long necklace of dark rudraksha beads, with a red tilak on his forehead and long swept-back dark hair. Behind him, dark grey stone deity murtis stand on red-fronted plinths, and two women in white and orange sit in meditation further back. Signs and banners are visible in the background, and the ground has scattered ash from a fire pit. The scene suggests a meditation session outdoors at an ashram.
