A standing man on a stage in front of a large sculpted backdrop of a multi-armed deity, rendered in gold and grey relief, seated on a lotus-like base with attendant figures below. The man wears a black turban, a brown patterned wrap over an orange-brown dhoti, several beaded necklaces with a large pendant, and bangles; he holds a silver trishul with both hands at his side. Green potted plants, uplit in green, flank the set, and gold foliage hangs from the tented ceiling. Partial lighting equipment sits at the left edge. The scene reads as a sacred darshan-style stage presentation for the Shuddhadvaitam program in Ujjain.
