A photograph on a stage. A man with long dark hair, a full beard, a red-tinted pendant and a saffron-orange shawl sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a cobra-hood backrest and a trident beside it. He raises one hand in a blessing gesture while the other rests on his knee, seated on red cushions. To the left stands a large dark deity murti draped in flower garlands and gold-trimmed cloth, with a gold-toned pendant and a yellow-and-gold cloth at its base. The background is a dark blue starry backdrop with gold drapes. Only the seated man is a physical person.
