A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a bare chest, long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and gold bangles sits on an ornate gold throne with lion and tiger carvings, smiling and looking to the side. Before him is a gold tray with brass plates of flowers, red hibiscus and offerings. Four people kneel around the tray: a woman with grey hair in white, a woman in an orange top with a rudraksha mala, a man in a white shirt, and a woman in orange with a white forehead mark. Brass oil lamps and bells hang from the ceiling against a black wall and a cream door. This appears to be a satsang or puja setting.
