A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi sits cross-legged in meditation on an orange cushion placed on a woven mat outdoors. He wears an orange-saffron robe draped over the shoulders and a long dark rudraksha mala around his neck, with eyes closed and hands clasped in his lap. A brass kalasha-style vessel stands at his left on the mat, and a pink-and-white rangoli design decorates the ground. Palm trees, a small orange shrine structure and smoke rising from a pit are visible behind. Two white-clad people sit meditating in the background. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala.
