A seated man in orange-saffron robes with gold-trimmed borders and layered beaded necklaces sits on a red velvet throne holding a tall silver staff, with his hand raised in blessing. In front of him a bald man in white dhoti and shawl with gold borders holds up a silver multi-branched aarti lamp with flames, a ritual aarti offering. A tray of flower petals sits on a gold stand at the foot of the throne. Behind the throne are brass oil lamps and flower arrangements against a red and dark cosmic backdrop. At left edge, another figure in an orange turban and saffron robe with rudraksha beads sits on a gold-framed chair.
