A decorated shrine room for a Rama Navami puja. Two life-size seated figures in saffron-orange turbans, blue shawls and red-and-white flower garlands sit behind an altar; the centre figure is at a table with a brass tray and a placard reading KAILASA GUADELOUPE GOYAVE. Both figures appear to be statues or mannequins rather than physical people. On the left, a small deity murti in multicoloured dress stands on a gold-draped table. A framed poster on the right shows a standing man with a long trident, rudraksha beads and a saffron-red dhoti. A mountain-and-lake photograph hangs above the centre. The red-draped altar holds baskets of pink and red petals, brass bowls, a banana leaf, fruit, a coconut and a small painted panel on an easel. Yellow curtains and potted plants complete the setting.
