A golden ornate throne (simhasana) draped with a tiger-skin cloth stands at the centre of a shrine, flanked by two large painted guardian figures with gold jewellery and orange-and-green lower garments. Above the throne hangs a framed portrait labelled "Paramahamsa Nithyananda" showing a smiling man in an orange turban and orange robe. Three people sit in the foreground facing the throne: one in red-brown robes at left, one in a dark top at centre, and one bald person in orange-brown robes at right. Hanging bells and brass ornaments decorate the throne area.
