A man seated in lotus posture with eyes closed, meditating on a leopard-print cushion draped over a raised platform. He wears a maroon turban with a crescent ornament, a leopard-print sleeveless garment over a rust-red cloth, layered rudraksha malas, a gold necklace with a large pendant, and rudraksha bracelets on his arms. A tall ornate silver staff stands at left. Behind him is a large red-toned relief sculpture of a multi-armed seated deity with a crown, pearl necklaces and a book in one hand. Appearance-based candidate for a person: long-haired presentation is not visible, but the turban, rudraksha malas, ornate gold necklace and ceremonial dress match the cues, so the in-person candidate is noted here.
