A seated man with closed eyes receives a blessing on the head from a bare-chested assistant in white ritual dress at left. The seated man wears a deep red-brown robe with a red-gold shawl, a rudraksha mala, and a white-and-red tilak on his forehead. He is draped in long garlands of white jasmine, pink lotus buds, green leaves, red roses and yellow marigolds. He holds a small yellow-green fruit in one hand. Behind him stands an ornate gold throne with carved floral scrollwork against a deep red curtain. The setting appears to be a ceremonial stage during a satsang or blessing event.
