A stage event with a large carved bronze-toned relief of a seated four-armed deity in the background, holding a trident-topped rod and a book, with sages carved below. A standing trident stands in front. A man in saffron robes and rudraksha garlands sits on the right, reaching out to touch the shoulder of a younger man in saffron-orange clothing seated before an ornate golden throne-like chair. Two more saffron-clad men with shaved heads sit at the left edge. The setting is a decorated stage with red drapes and ornate panels. Whether the seated older man in ornate garlands is a candidate for the named teacher is not clear from appearance alone, so the identity is left uncertain.
