A smiling man with long dark hair and a full beard stands before a deep red draped curtain, raising both hands palm-out at shoulder height in an open, expressive gesture. He wears a rust-orange sannyasi wrap over a bare upper body, with a white garland of pink and white flowers draped around his neck, layered dark rudraksha malas, and a gold chain. A white and red tilak marks his forehead. Behind him hang two brass bells, and a tall gold trident stands at right beside an ornate gold altar piece.
