A bearded man with long dark hair and a red bindi sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne, waving with his right hand and smiling. He wears rust-orange ochre robes, a heavy gold necklace, gold armbands and bangles, and a rudraksha mala. Behind him stands a deity murti crowned with a silver crown, holding a trident, flanked by two smaller silver-crowned figures, all framed by garlands of red, yellow and white flowers and pink lotus petals. A silver spear leans beside the throne, and a microphone stands at right. Painted panels show seated saints with raised hands. The setting suggests a satsang discourse stage.
