A man in an orange jacket and orange turban stands on a gravel shoulder beside a paved mountain road, holding a long silver staff over his shoulder. He wears a rudraksha mala with a leopard-print wrap and orange cloth at his waist, and a red tilak mark on his forehead. A white SUV is parked at left with an orange flag mounted on its side bearing a dark bird emblem and the words Nithyananda Dhyanapeetham. Barren brown mountains rise behind a dry, stony landscape under a pale sky.
