A central figure sits on the rocks wearing long saffron-orange robes, a saffron shawl and a rudraksha-style beaded necklace, with long dark hair swept back; he is seated among devotees. Around him, many people in white dhotis and saffron shawls sit or stand among trees, including a woman in a white sari and saffron shawl, and a man in a light blue shirt with a visitor badge in the foreground.
