A man with long dark hair sits cross-legged on a large grey boulder in a rocky, glacial landscape, eyes closed in meditation. He wears a saffron-orange robe over an orange top with a teal turtleneck visible at the neck, a red tilaka on his forehead, and a long rudraksha mala draped across his chest with his hands resting together in his lap. Behind him a pale braided glacial stream runs between grey boulders beneath misty, steep rock faces. The scene reads as a Himalayan meditation at the source of a river.
