A framed painting in a temple shrine shows a smiling man seated cross-legged on a pink lotus in a lily pond, wearing a red-orange turban, red robe with a gold-trimmed yellow sash, rudraksha-style beaded mala and a gold ceremonial necklace, one hand raised in blessing and a golden halo of rays behind him. Three framed photographs sit below: a portrait of a man in a red ceremonial headdress, a central image of a deity murti in red and gold draping, and a portrait of a figure in white garments. Marigold garlands and a small red-and-gold kalasha with marigolds and red flowers decorate the altar, with a red cloth covering the table. No physical people are visible.
