A smiling man stands barefoot on bare dry earth in front of a large banyan tree with thick, twisting aerial roots. He wears an orange saffron turban, an orange saffron robe draped over one shoulder, and a long rudraksha mala hanging to his waist. His long dark hair falls onto his shoulders, and his hands are folded at his waist while he gazes upward. Dappled sunlight falls across the ground and the tree roots.
