A seated figure in orange and saffron robes sits on a white-covered raised seat on a green mat in a plain white-walled hall. Two standing attendants in white with orange shawls hold up a tall golden staff and an orange-and-blue embroidered ceremonial canopy above and beside the seated figure. Several young boys in white sit on the floor at the sides, some wearing rudraksha malas. A printed poster on the wall shows photographs with text about a spiritual experience. The seated figure has long dark hair and a relaxed, meditative posture with a hand raised near the face.
