A seated man in reddish-orange and gold robes sits in a meditative pose with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed, on an ornate gold throne with a tiger-striped cloth draped over the seat. A gold canopy with leaf-shaped pendants rises above the throne against a dark red curtain. He wears a white forehead mark, a red bindi, a thick beaded rudraksha-style mala and a ceremonial gold pendant. Gold lion-shaped armrest finials flank the throne. The man has long hair. The page identifies the event as Samaya Deeksha, so the figure is a person by the visible presentation cues of ceremonial saffron-orange dress, malas and ornate throne; the appearance is consistent with the page claim.
