He wears a saffron-orange robe with a maroon border draped over the shoulder, a long rudraksha mala of brown beads around his neck, and a small red tilak on his forehead. His hands are open at his lap in a teaching gesture. Behind him stands a polished brass oil lamp with a lit flame, and a small arrangement of orange and white flowers sits on the right.
