A photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes on a stone platform rising from calm water, with a red, white and blue striped umbrella overhead. Stone retaining walls, palm trees and a white boundary wall frame the pond, and the figure and umbrella are mirrored in the still surface. The figure appears to be a sannyasi seated on a raised stone seat with a blue-and-red patterned mat, gazing toward the water. The page associates this event with a discourse, but the figure's appearance does not show distinctive enough cues to confirm an identity, so the figure is described by role only.
