A dark stone statue of a four-armed deity seated on a dark pedestal, draped in a purple cloth and wearing a white and silver garland and ornaments with a purple headband. Behind it stands an arched silver frame with a red curtain. The base is a red-dusted mound with a small plaque beneath. Trees and paved ground surround the shrine in an outdoor garden setting. The plaque reads Dakshinamurthi, and the statue is a depiction rather than a living person.
