He reaches his right hand into a large dark bronze bowl filled with yellow and red flower petals. Behind him, a shaved-headed monk in saffron robes with a rudraksha-style necklace looks down toward a phone, and a golden lion-head ornament sits near the bowl. A golden deity murti stands at the left edge, with a pink drape, yellow bunting and a bright screen on the right. The man is a probable Swamiji, identified by the long swept-back hair, ornate garland and red-and-saffron dress, and is shown performing a flower offering.
