A shaven-headed man in saffron-orange robes sits with eyes closed amid a dense orange haze, with bright flames running along the ground beside him and a flame streak rising at upper right. A figure in orange cloth stands partly visible behind him. The person is seated in a meditative posture, and the image is dominated by warm orange and yellow tones. A copyright notice appears at lower right.
