A man stands on a stage in front of an ornate golden peetha-style throne with leopard-print cushions, one hand resting on a tall silver staff topped with a small ornament. He wears a rust-brown sleeveless top, matching draped dhoti-style lower garment and a heavy rudraksha-style mala with a large silver heart-shaped pendant. His long dark hair is swept up on his head and he has a bindi and arm bands. Behind him, a warmly lit blue-and-orange backdrop shows large painted stone-like deity figures flanking a wooden door. A golden carved pillar frames the right edge and flowers and foliage decorate the stage floor. The image is a photograph of a staged performance-style event with no other people visible.
