A photograph of a seated figure in a red-brown and saffron-orange garment, wearing a long red and beaded rudraksha-style garland, a gold pendant and a dark rudraksha mala, with a vertical red-orange tilak on the forehead. He sits in a dark reddish-brown leather throne-style chair beside a tall silver staff topped with a trident-like finial that carries a light. His eyes are lowered and his hands rest open in a calm gesture. Around him, a crowd of women in blue kurtas, saris and red dupattas stands in the dimly lit background, some looking toward him. The setting appears to be an evening gathering with a dense standing audience.
