A man with long dark hair and a red tilak stands smiling with eyes closed inside an ornate gold-carved shrine lit by strings of small lights and hanging brass bells, with smoke or mist drifting around him. He wears a rust-red kurta with a matching draped sash at the waist and loose red trousers, a thin gold chain at his neck, and holds a golden trident-topped staff in one hand. Gilded lion and bull figures and a golden kalasha-like finial frame the scene.
