A photograph of a seated man with closed eyes at a stage table decorated with a large bouquet of red, yellow and white flowers. He wears a white shawl over white clothing and a dark rudraksha-style mala at his neck; he has grey-streaked hair and a grey beard. Behind him stands a golden deity murti wrapped in a multicoloured flower garland of green, yellow, red and white blooms, with a gilded crown. Another deity image and a framed photograph sit on an easel to the right, and a person in orange robes is partly visible at the left edge. The setting is a festival stage at the first Kumbha Mela held in the USA, in September 2006.
