He wears a rust-red turban with a silver crescent ornament and a red tilak, a rust-red robe, a heavy gold necklace with a deity pendant, and pink lotus garlands. Rudraksha bracelets are on his wrists and upper arms, and his right hand is raised in gesture. The throne is covered with a leopard-print cloth. Swamiji (probable): the figure wears a turban, ornate gold jewellery, rudraksha bracelets and a lotus garland, and is seated on a golden throne as the speaker.
