A seated man in orange-red robes sits before an ornate golden throne-like backdrop with a red wall behind him. He wears a tripundra mark on his forehead, a long rudraksha mala, and a gold pendant necklace, and holds a silver ceremonial staff with a flaming lamp on a blue bowl in front of him. A microphone stands nearby and a silver elephant motif is visible on the chair. The appearance-based label a person applies to this person, shown in a ceremonial sitting position during an aushadha puja-style ritual with a lit oil lamp and offerings.
