A seated man in a rust-orange turban and orange-brown dhoti sits on an ornate silver throne with leopard-print cushions, palms pressed together in namaskar. Yellow and orange marigold garlands hang across his shoulders and chest over rudraksha malas and bead bracelets. He is bare-chested with a sacred thread and sits before a microphone stand. Behind him an elaborate arch of gold and jewel-like embroidered panels in red, green, yellow and blue frames the throne, with purple fairy lights around the backdrop and a silver kalasha-style lamp stand at his left side. The setting suggests a devotional gathering or satsang on a stage.
