Outdoors under palm trees, a man with long dark swept-back hair, orange sleeveless wrap and a long rudraksha mala sits cross-legged on an orange cushion with eyes closed in meditation, hands resting in his lap. A brass kalasha-style pot sits on a mat in front of him. Two more men in orange and white robes with yellow shawls sit meditating in the background on a cleared dirt and ash ground, with a small red building and palm trees behind them. Swamiji (probable) is the central figure, identified by the long hair, orange wrap and rudraksha mala.
