A man in saffron-orange robes and a matching red-orange turban stands at left, wearing a long yellow, white and red floral garland and a dark rudraksha mala with a gold pendant. He raises one hand in a gesture while speaking. Beside him on an easel stands a whiteboard with a four-cell grid: top row labelled 'with thoughts' and 'without thoughts', left column 'with "I"' and 'without "I"', and handwritten words 'waking', 'Samadhi', 'Dreaming' and 'Deep Sleep' in the cells. A gold-brocaded backdrop hangs behind, with orange flowers at the lower left edge. The scene resembles a discourse talk; the speaker's identity is not established by appearance alone.
