He wears a saffron-orange draped garment with a gold-patterned border, a leopard-print sash at the waist, multiple rudraksha malas across the chest and forearm bands, and a crescent ornament on a gold-and-black patterned headwrap. A red tilak marks his forehead. He smiles and gestures with his free hand.
