A photograph inside an ornate temple shrine with carved grey stone pillars and a golden arched frame. Two deity murti are seated together on a gilded seat draped in yellow cloth, one with a red crown and one with a jewelled headdress, both decorated with garlands of yellow and purple flowers and gold ornaments. Brass lamp stands with multiple oil lamps flank the shrine. In front, a golden throne-like seat with a garland holds a framed printed photograph of a smiling man in saffron robes with a rudraksha mala, seated and making a hand gesture against a tree backdrop, marked as a printed picture rather than a physical person. A partial figure of a person is visible at the right edge.

A shrine inside a stone temple structure with orange cloth hangings on both sides. Two gold-coloured deity murti sit on a raised platform, garlanded with yellow, red and orange marigolds, with a gold kalasha-like object and brass lamps arranged in front. In the foreground a framed photograph of a seated saffron-robed man with a long mala is garlanded with flowers and placed on a chair with red upholstery.
