A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with his eyes closed, a lit oil lamp held in one hand. He has long, swept-back dark hair and an orange robe draped over a sleeveless top; the figure is an appearance-based a person candidate. In front of the throne, a low table holds plates of fruit, apples, and small offerings. Around him, several devotees sit on the floor with palms joined or holding lamps: a bald man in white, a woman in a yellow sari, a woman in a white sari, a woman in a red floral blouse, and a woman in a green top at the left edge. Brass plates with flowers and lit oil lamps sit before them. A window and a blue curtain frame the plain room.
