He wears an orange saffron robe with a maroon-red border, a long rudraksha mala of dark beads around his neck, and a small red bindi on his forehead. His long dark hair is swept back, and he gazes off to the side with a calm expression. In front of him sits a brass kalasha-style pot with a spout on the mat. Behind him are palm trees, a white building, a low grey wall and a paved courtyard.
