A barefoot man in rust-red saffron-toned draped robes stands on a stage holding a tall silver staff topped with a trident-like finial and a small round drum-shaped ornament with tassels. He wears a rudraksha mala and a red-brown wrap over his shoulder, with a red tilak on his forehead. Behind him a large projection screen shows a waterfall cascading down rocks with a herd of deer grazing below. Stage lights hang from a metal truss above and a pink curtain edges the left side. The appearance-based candidate for a person is shown here through his rudraksha mala, saffron-red robes and ornate staff, standing in performance on stage.
