A black stone murti of Dakshinamurthi, the four-armed form of Shiva as teacher, seated on a rock with one foot resting on a small prostrate figure. He wears a mustard-yellow dhoti with green edging, a yellow headband, a red tilak, and layered rudraksha malas with a pendant. Garlands of white and magenta flowers drape over his shoulders and arms. He is framed by an ornate white arched stone niche against a red curtain. Two brass oil lamps and incense sticks stand before a stone plinth, beside a bench and a red-painted rock base. Surrounding trees fill the background.
