A man seated on an ornate silver throne with leopard-print cushions, wearing a rust-red dhoti and cloth, bare-chested with white markings, and a large garland of yellow, white and red flowers draped around his neck, smiles toward a young disciple. The disciple, in orange-red robes with a rudraksha mala and white tripundra marks, sits on a red cloth holding a red plate. Behind them, standing attendants in orange robes and a leopard-print headband hold offering plates, and a cameraperson films at the back. Silver ritual items, a peacock-topped stand and a silver staff are in the foreground.
