A man with long dark dreadlocks and a beard raises his right hand while seated on a silver-framed red-cushioned throne beside silver staffs topped with a trident finial. He wears a rust-brown shawl of rudraksha beads over a bare chest and has a white horizontal forehead mark and a red thread on his wrist. Behind him, several people in orange and white robes with white forehead marks sit in a hall with wooden doors. A person in the foreground holds a green-tipped ceremonial item, and an orange-clad figure stands at left. A printed backdrop reads partly as text behind him.

A bearded man with long dreadlocked hair and a white vertical forehead mark stands at a silver-pillared ritual platform, eyes closed, right fist raised, wearing a rust-red garment with a thick brown rope-like shawl over one shoulder and a red thread on his wrist.
