A man with long dark hair, eyes closed and hands folded in his lap, sits cross-legged in meditation on a low seat in an outdoor garden. He wears an orange-saffron robe draped over one shoulder and a long dark rudraksha mala, with a red tilak on his forehead. Behind him stands a large orange plinth topped by a black stone bull statue, Nandi, with a white three-line marking. Palm trees and grey stone figures surround the courtyard, and a brass kalasha sits at the front. A second man in orange robes sits to the right, also in meditation.
