A framed painting on an easel shows a seated boy with bare chest and a rudraksha mala around his neck, wearing a tan dhoti and a white tilak on his forehead. He holds a small blade to his own shin, with a red line and a drop of blood on the leg. Small white marks dot his arms and shoulders. A grey landscape and green plant appear behind the frame. The figure is a painted depiction, not a visible physical candidate for the teacher's appearance.
