A smiling man sits on an ornate cushioned seat behind a wooden reading stand holding an open blue-covered book with pink bookmarks. He wears an orange-saffron robe, an orange and maroon turban with a red tilak mark on his forehead, and a rudraksha mala with a gold pendant. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders and a white wrist band is visible. Behind him a large banner reads Bhagavad Gita The Song of the Lord with an illustrated chariot scene showing a charioteer and warrior in red and orange. Potted palms flank the seat and a gold ornamental lamp stands at the right edge. The setting resembles a discourse stage.
