A seated man on an ornate gold throne with red cushions wears an orange saffron garment and a long beaded rudraksha-style necklace, with a red bindi on his forehead. In front of him a man in a beige short-sleeved shirt stands with both arms raised toward the sky, facing him. Behind them is a large painted backdrop of ancient banyan tree roots and foliage. A small wooden side table with flowers and a white fan sits at the right edge. The scene reads as a satsang moment with a guided meditation gesture.

He has slicked-back hair, a red bindi and a tilak, and wears a long multi-bead rudraksha mala.
