A man with long dreadlocked hair and a white horizontal forehead marking sits on an ornate white-and-silver throne with red cushioning. He wears rust-red and orange draped robes, multiple strands of brown rudraksha beads, a gold necklace, rudraksha armbands and wrist beads, and a patterned sash at his waist. Behind him stands a second person in orange clothing. A red draped table and a keyboard appear in the background of a hall with golden decor. The page excerpt describes a Mandala Process initiation at Adikailasa, Bengaluru, on 28 September 2017, but the image itself shows only a seated man in ceremonial dress with dreadlocks, rudraksha malas and a gold necklace, which are the appearance cues for a person.
