A seated figure in an orange-red saffron robe with gold bangles and multiple rudraksha malas and gold necklaces sits on an ornate gold throne carved with peacock-like motifs, raising a sprig of green leaves overhead with one arm. A man on the left, bare-chested with white sacred markings on his body, a white dhoti and beaded necklaces, holds a leaf bundle and a small cloth-wrapped object. A Yamaha mixer/console and a microphone stand sit in front of the throne, against a painted backdrop of colourful mythic figures. The seated person appears to be the presiding figure, consistent with a satsang or ritual sprinkling; the other man is assisting.
