A seated man in an orange-saffron robe with long dark hair sits on a gold-and-red throne-like seat, his palms pressed together in namaskar. Before him on a gold tray sit silver plates of offerings, and a gold lion-form figure rests at the base of the seat. Around him, devotees kneel on a striped mat under a red-draped canopy: a woman in a white sari with an orange shawl with hands folded, a man in white with a rudraksha mala, a woman in white with a mala also in prayerful pose, a woman in a green-and-cream sari, and a woman in a yellow top. A red-and-orange cushion and gold decorative pillar complete the scene. Several devotees are gathered in a satsang-style setting, with a paada pooja appearing to be in progress.
