The murti stands on a gold-and-yellow cart or stand with a yellow cloth and a gold lion-shaped base, framed by a tall arch of red, yellow, purple, green and white flower garlands against dark red curtains. A small red-and-yellow rug lies at the man's bare feet.

Beside him stands a golden-bronze deity murti of a goddess in a maroon sari with silver jewellery and garlands, raising one hand, set against a rainbow-coloured flower arch on a yellow-draped golden lion-footed pedestal, with a dark red velvet backdrop. The man's appearance (turban, long hair, rudraksha mala, gold medallion) fits the page's Swamiji reference, but identity is only probable.2011-12-18A standing man in an orange turban and maroon dhoti with orange border stands on a small red rug before a golden deity murti of a woman standing on a gold bull-shaped carriage with a yellow cloth draped over it. The murti wears white jewelled necklaces, a red blouse and gold-bordered sari, and is framed by a large arch of red, white, purple, yellow and green flower garlands against a dark maroon velvet curtain. The man wears a red and yellow flower garland, a rudraksha mala, a large gold pendant, gold armbands and a bangle, and performs a raised-hand greeting gesture with a smile. A bank of flower decoration and gold vehicle wheels is visible at the base.
