A woman in a maroon sari with a gold border and a green-and-yellow flower garland stands with palms pressed together in namaste before a small shrine in a whitewashed room. The shrine has a yellow-ochre multi-tiered canopy with pillars, and inside it a dark stone murti of Dakshinamurthy, seated and garlanded with marigolds and green leaves. A framed picture and a small devotional image sit at the base. A man in an orange-saffron robe and glasses stands at right, hands folded in prayer, facing the shrine. A bamboo mat leans against the left wall. The yellow sign above the shrine reads in Tamil that it is Sri Dakshinamurthy Swamigal's shrine.
