A white marble statue of a seated sannyasi is the central subject, dressed in a saffron-yellow robe and yellow turban, wearing a rudraksha mala and a gold pendant, with white jasmine garlands and red rose garlands around its neck. It raises one hand in blessing. Behind it stand heaped garlands of red, purple and yellow flowers over a golden cloth, with an ornate gold-trimmed backdrop. On the right a silver vessel holds green leaves and a small orange-yellow kalasha-style pot, and in the foreground a brass oil lamp and a gold bowl of yellow flowers sit on the altar. A printed booklet lies at the left edge. This is a statue, not a physical person, shown in a decorated puja setting.
