The image features a logo design with a vibrant sunburst pattern in the background. The sunburst consists of alternating rays of deep blue, red, and yellow, emanating from a circular yellow center. In the center, there is a stylized black outline of a lotus flower with a hand, symbolizing peace or spirituality. Below the sunburst, the acronym "SEBRC" is prominently displayed in bold black letters, followed by the full name "Southeastern Buddhist Retreat Center"
