Three children in white clothes and orange satsang-style lanyards stand barefoot on a yellow shaggy rug at the left, reaching toward a seated figure at the right. A woman in a white sari with a gold border stands beside them, smiling. The seated figure wears a long red-and-yellow floral garland, gold bangles, a gold-patterned robe, and rests on a golden lion-shaped throne arm; a person is visible here through the long swept-back hair, the ornate gold-and-striped robe and garland. Behind them audience members sit in the dim hall, and an ornate golden lamp stand rises in the background.
