A photograph inside an open stone shrine with carved pillars and orange curtains. In the centre sits a man in an orange saffron robe and a dark rudraksha mala, long hair swept back, reclining on an orange armchair with bare feet up on a footstool, smiling. Behind him is a deity murti flanked by garlands of yellow and red flowers, with a golden peetha or throne, brass oil lamps and a white podium to his left. A gold arched frame surrounds the central figures, and a carved panel shows a Ganesha relief on the left pillar. The floor is covered with an orange cloth and a red carpet.
