A golden temple shrine with a red curtain backdrop holds a pair of deity murti seated side by side, one with a red turban and crown and the other with a tall gold crown, both wearing gold jewellery and red garments. Yellow and magenta garlands hang over the figures and a golden kalasha-like crown piece sits between them. In front, an ornate gold throne with red cushions displays a framed portrait of a seated saffron-robed teacher with a white beaded mala, holding one hand raised in blessing. Tall brass oil lamps flank the shrine, and a red-clad figure stands in a small niche to the right.
