A man sits cross-legged on a raised dais in front of a large, brightly lit deity murti with multiple arms and a golden frame. He wears a gold crown, a rust-orange robe, layered gold necklaces, and a pink and white flower garland, with bangles on his wrists and an armlet. He has a red tilak on his forehead, eyes closed, a broad smile, and his palms pressed together at chest height in a gesture of greeting. Red roses, yellow blooms and green leaves decorate the pillars of a canopy overhead. Probable Swamiji (appearance-based), presenting a sannyasi role with crown, saffron-orange robe, gold necklaces and flower garlands; the scene shows a satsang-style gathering seated before the deity figure.
