Indoor meditation session with a bearded older man in an orange-saffron robe seated on the floor, his grey hair and white beard visible, while a woman in a white outfit with a gold-bordered shawl stands behind him, touching his forehead with her fingers. Flower arrangements with orange lilies, pink roses and green stems sit at the right edge. Around them, devotees in white kurtas and white salwar-style clothing kneel or stand, a young woman in a white embroidered dress has her hands clasped, and a figure in a red garment sits at the lower left. Wooden floor and a light-coloured wall form the setting. The older man in saffron is an appearance-based a person candidate; his ornate orange clothing and long white beard are the qualifying cues, though his face is not used for identification.
