A seated man in an orange-red shawl with dark swept-back hair reaches forward with both hands to touch the forehead of a shorter man in a white shirt and red shawl who leans in with eyes closed and palms raised. Behind them a golden deity murti or ornate figure is decorated with yellow, orange and purple garlands. On the right a woman in a red sari and rudraksha mala watches. The setting appears to be a satsang or blessing moment. The man in orange has a shawl with printed text and a visible golden armlet. Swamiji (probable) is shown in a seated blessing with long swept-back hair, an orange shawl and gold ornamentation.

The seated figure has long swept-back hair and is bare-shouldered on one side, and sits in a large brown leather chair. The recipient wears a white shirt and an orange scarf printed with script, with his palms pressed together in a gesture of reverence.
