I get interesting adds. One of them led to here. But my Russian is too rusty to figure out what the picture says, anyone?

He is praying to mahatmah's spirit to get elected to the third term; it in quasi-Indian accent with "нах" thrown in for good measure which fit into "indian" accent nicely too.

I can't tell you exactly what that means because it's not correct Russian, it's some Russian words changed to look like Indian (not American Indian but Far East Indian)

The author tries to make the character on the right to speak in something sike Sanskrit-Russian medley. A weak try, though, since the result sounds more like broken Tatar. Since the character addresses to the portrait of Mahathma Gandhi, you can easily make out the opening "Om Mahathma." The further lines make no sense per se, but you can make out that the character longs for his third presidential term, but his karma prevents him from it.

He is not praying, he is speaking, picture relates to Putin's last interview.

Putin recently made some, shall we say, "interesting" comments in which he said he was the only "pure" democrat around and then started lamenting he had no other true democrats to talk to since Gandhi died...see the article here:

In such a way Putin's words sound sooo high and mighty, but if you'll read that quote as a whole, you'll understand that it is just a joke about modern understanding of word 'Democracy'.

Here is that quote (in russian):

"Являюсь ли я демократом чистой воды? Конечно, я абсолютный и чистый демократ. Но вы знаете, в чем беда? Даже не беда, трагедия настоящая. В том, что я такой один, других таких в мире просто нет. Посмотрим, что творится в Северной Америке — ужас один: пытки, бездомные, Гуантанамо, содержание под стражей без суда и следствия. Посмотрите, что происходит в Европе: жестокое обращение с демонстрантами, применение резиновых пуль, слезоточивого газа то в одной столице, то в другой, убийства демонстрантов на улицах. Была одна надежда на ребят с Украины, но и те просто полностью себя дискредитировали, там дело идет просто к сплошной тирании. Полное нарушение Конституции, всех законов и так далее. После смерти Махатмы Ганди поговорить не с кем."

Here is my translate:

"Am I a pure democrat? Of course, I'm a pure and absolute democrat. But you know what the problem is – not a problem, a real tragedy – that I am alone. There are no such pure democrats in the world. Just look at what’s happening in North America, it’s simply awful: torture, homeless people, Guantanamo, people detained without trial and investigation. Just look at what’s happening in Europe: brutal treatment with marchers, use of rubber bullets and tear-gas now here, now there, murders of demonstrators on the streets. The only hope was concerned with guys from Ukraine, but, unfortunately, they have completely disconsidered themselves, the situation there leads to a all-round tyranny. Complete violation of Constitution, laws e.t.c. After Mahatma Gandi's death, there is no one to talk to."

It's some kind of joke.
In good russian:

О, Махатма
Властелин вертикальной чакры
Нирвана нахуй
Третий срок
Нереальная карма
