A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a dark rudraksha mala sits cross-legged on a woven mat in an outdoor courtyard, eyes closed, hands resting in meditation near a small brass vessel. Flower petals lie scattered on the ground and a circular floor pattern surrounds the seat. Behind him stand grey stone carvings of deities and serpent-hooded figures on pedestals, a black stone Nandi-like bull draped in marigold and red garlands, and a tall orange-red pillar. Palm trees and a red-and-yellow painted board showing a family group frame the scene. A person in white walks in the background.
