A seated figure in a saffron and gold robe with a rudraksha mala and a gold chain receives an ornate red and gold umbrella held over him by a shaved-headed attendant in a saffron robe with a rudraksha mala. The umbrella has red tassels, gold fringe and gold embroidered motifs. A cobra-hooded ornament or statue stands at the right edge beside the seated figure. Behind them, seated devotees in white and saffron attire fill a hall with patterned gold wall panels. The seated figure has long dark hair and a distinctive presentation with ceremonial adornments, which appears consistent with the a person candidate for this satsang homa event, though his appearance is only partly visible.
