A standing man in an orange-saffron robe with a draped sleeveless wrap stands outdoors on dry, grassy open land with scattered shrubs, a row of coconut palms, a small fence, and a utility pole in the background.

The sky is pale and hazy.2010-02-04A man sits cross-legged on a large grey boulder in a wooded outdoor setting with green trees and foliage behind him.

His long dark hair falls past his shoulders, his hands rest folded in his lap, and he gazes off to the side in calm meditation.
