A seated figure in a rust-red robe with a rudraksha mala draped over the shoulders, a white tilak on the forehead and hair tied back, places a hand on the head of a man in a white shirt who bows forward. The seated figure's other hand holds a sheet of printed paper. A silver trident stands between them, with green leaves of a potted plant behind it. A gold-patterned throne and red velvet draping fill the background, with garlands of yellow and orange flowers at the top right. The scene reads as a blessing given at a satsang setting.
