The upper figure is adorned with white and silver ornaments and a gold crown-like headdress, flanked by a green, yellow, red and white garland arch. Red and yellow flower garlands drape the base and a rangoli-like floral arrangement of petals and leaves lies on the stone platform. Gold-painted rock forms the base, with trees and a bench in the background. No physical people are visible, so the statues are depictions only and the figure cannot be confirmed as the a person from appearance alone.2018-12-31March 08 20052005-03-08 +1 copiesDecember 05 20162016-12-05 +1 copiesA golden statue of a seated guru figure in a red-orange robe and orange turban, wearing a beaded multi-strand necklace and a red-yellow garland, with its right hand raised in blessing, sits on a rocky mound in front of a dark blue deity murti.
