A seated man in an orange-saffron robe and matching orange shawl sits cross-legged on an orange mat in meditation, hands clasped in his lap and eyes lowered. He has long dark hair and a red bindi on his forehead. Behind him stands a large black stone Nandi bull statue with a garland of beads, atop a terracotta-coloured pedestal. To his left is a small brass kalasha pot on the ground, a wheeled wooden cart with a faded orange cloth partly visible, and a red-and-white striped barrier in the foreground. The ground around him is covered with ash-grey sand and coloured rangoli patterns. Swamiji is visibly present; the appearance cues are long hair, saffron clothing and a shawl with a bindi, giving a probable identification.
