A stage at an ashram-style event with dark red curtains and a large backdrop of a fiery sunset showing two figures, one holding an arrow. A man with long dark hair and a beard sits in a silver chair on a red rug, wearing orange-saffron robes with a rudraksha mala, his hands resting in his lap. Two golden-and-silver processional figures flank him: a deity murti with a trident on the left and a golden bull with a gold-draped cloth and garlands on the right, with decorated palanquin-style canopies and garlands. A dark-clad person bends low on the left in a stretch pose, and a bare-chested person in grey lower garments crouches on the right, both performing yoga postures. Two people are physically present in the scene.
