A seated man with swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead sits eyes closed in meditation on an ornate golden throne with a pink cushion. He wears an orange saffron wrap and a long dark rudraksha mala with hands clasped in his lap. Beside him on a wooden table sit silver and gold ritual items and a stack of folded orange cloth on a red cloth. Dark blue drapery forms the background. This is a photograph of a seated person, and an appearance-based a person cue is present through the saffron wrap, rudraksha mala and throne setting, so the candidate is physically present.
