He wears multiple rudraksha malas, a white tripundra on his forehead, and red-and-white ribbon of flower garlands hang from the canopy above. His right arm is raised in a gesture while his left hand rests on the seat. Silver ceremonial staffs and a trident stand at the left, a gold-patterned backdrop behind, and a yellow garland hangs on the right pillar. Appearance-based: a person, seated in the role of a discourse-giving teacher on a ceremonial peetha.
