A smiling figure in orange-saffron clothing sits on a rock at right, wearing a saffron turban with a round gold-toned ornament, rudraksha beads, and an orange wrap, holding small objects in both hands. Facing them at left, a man in a dark grey shirt and orange shawl listens. In the foreground, several seated people with backs turned, including a bald man and a woman with hair clipped back, wear orange wraps.
