A central figure with long dark hair wears a white kurta and a large orange marigold garland, gesturing with one raised arm while seated on a stone plinth. Around him, devotees in orange and saffron robes sit and stand, some wearing rudraksha malas and marigold garlands. Several men in white shirts and a man in a red shirt lean in, and one man in an orange shawl sits at the lower right.
