A seated man in a deep red-orange robe and rudraksha mala is being honoured at a Guru Purnima satsang in front of a throne decorated with marigold and red-and-white flower garlands. He wears a floral garland of pink and white flowers and smiles as a woman in a white sari with a red-brown rudraksha necklace offers him a pink lotus while water is poured over the throne area. A second woman in white with a gold-bordered cloth and rudraksha beads sits to the left holding a pink lotus. Brass and gold ornaments and a carved lion-face motif appear at the right. The appearance of the seated man is a person candidate with his shaved hair and orange robes, but this is a probable match only.
