A seated man sits cross-legged on a large red velvet throne with a tall arched back, draped with a leopard-print cloth. He wears an orange-saffron cloth over his shoulder and body, with a long beaded rudraksha-style mala, gold necklaces, and gold armbands. He has a white forehead mark and holds a tall dark pole with small bells hanging from it. Two brass oil lamps stand on either side of the throne, and pink and white flower arrangements sit on the platform beside a water bottle and telephone. The backdrop shows a painted cosmic scene with a crescent moon, stars and red-orange light. The seated figure is an appearance-based a person candidate, identified by the throne, saffron clothing, mala and gold ornaments.
