A seated figure in saffron-orange clothing and a red-orange head covering sits in an ornate chair beside a tall trident, with a beaded mala visible at the chest. Around him, many people in white kurtas and red-and-maroon shawls sit cross-legged on a colourful striped rug, most wearing black blindfolds.
