A man in orange robes and a long rudraksha mala sits cross-legged in meditation on an orange cushion placed on a mat within a circular ring of ash on a paved courtyard. A brass pot stands at his left. Behind him rests a large black stone Nandi bull draped with a white cloth, with orange-painted stone pedestals and palm trees in the background. A white dove walks along the blue-bordered woven mat. The page identifies a person as present, but the figure's appearance alone is not sufficiently distinctive to confirm, so the identity is marked unsure.
