He wears a large black turban with a crescent ornament, a red-orange robe, a gold necklace and many rudraksha malas across his chest and arms. Before him stands a stone mortar and pestle and a dark grinding slab with herbs and yellow powder, used for preparing an aushadha medicine. A brass deity figure, a silver throne decorated with garlands, and lamps sit nearby, with a microphone on a stand and lush green foliage behind.

He wears a long black dreadlocked turban topped with a white crescent ornament, a white and red forehead mark, a dense rudraksha mala with a gold pendant necklace, and rudraksha armlets and wrist beads. Before him stands a dark stone mortar filled with yellow turmeric powder, into which he presses a pestle, with bunches of green herbs, bowls and a basket of ingredients around.
