A shaved-headed man sits cross-legged on a dark mat in a meditation posture, wearing a white sleeveless tank top, beige loose trousers, and a dark rudraksha mala with a small round pendant. He has white vertical tilak marks on his forehead and a red dot at the centre, and his right hand is raised to his nose in a nasal breathing practice while his left hand rests on his knee. A deep red velvet curtain hangs behind him on a pale floor. He is a single practitioner with no visible identity cues beyond ordinary ritual dress, so no identification is made.
