The figure has long dreadlocked hair gathered in a high topknot, wears a red garment with a leopard-print skirt, a gold necklace, and gold and red bangles, and holds a tall golden trident in the left hand. A seated audience in front, mostly women in saris and salwar kameez in pink, green, orange and white, presses hands together. A large screen with a pink-white image is at left, and a microphone stand sits near the throne. The setting is a satsang-style hall with pale draped curtains.
