A figure with long dark hair, a red-painted forehead, and a rudraksha-style mala of green and pink beads sits on an ornate golden throne-like seat with a gold arched backdrop and pink panels. He wears a rust-red and green-brown wrap and holds a silver trident upright in one raised hand. Gold decorative arches and a brass lamp stand frame the stage. The appearance and seated throne are consistent with a person in a stage portrayal; the setting suggests a decorated ceremonial stage.

He wears layered rudraksha and bead malas, a ceremonial necklace, and forehead markings with a red bindi, and holds a tall silver trident in his right hand. Behind him is a gilded, ornately carved arch. Small oil lamps with flames sit on the lower platform. He appears to be speaking into a head microphone during a satsang.
