A staged scene on a red-carpeted stage before a backdrop of a thatched hut and a large banyan tree with aerial roots. A man in saffron-orange dhoti and shawl with an orange turban sits on a chair holding a golden trident, his hair long and hanging down his back, with a rudraksha-style mala at his neck. Three men in white dhotis with gold borders kneel or bow before him, one standing and bent forward with hands folded, two kneeling with palms joined. The setting appears to be a dramatized ashram or forest-hermitage scene.
