A man sits cross-legged in meditation on a low orange wooden seat set on a woven mat in an open outdoor courtyard. He wears orange saffron robes, a dark rudraksha mala around his neck, and a red tilak on his forehead, with hands folded in his lap and eyes closed. Beside him is a brass kalasha-style vessel. Behind him stands a black stone Nandi bull draped with marigold and multicolored flower garlands on an orange-red pedestal, with palm trees and a small shrine structure behind. A pink cloth lies on the mat, and white floral kolam designs decorate the ground.

He wears a long rudraksha mala and a red bindi on his forehead, with a brass kalasha placed to his left on a woven mat.
