A temple-style hall with painted pink and green pillars and a gilded throne-like seat. Behind the seat hangs a framed portrait of a smiling man with an orange-saffron turban, shown as a painted or printed picture, not a live person. Two painted, multi-armed standing figures with crowns flank the central shrine. In the foreground, a shaved-headed figure in a brown-orange robe with a beaded mala stands at left, holding a lit multi-tiered oil lamp. Brass lamps line the platform, and a few people in white and orange sit in front of the shrine, performing a ritual.
