The throne back is covered in layered red, yellow, white and green flowers arranged in arches, and two golden lion figures flank the seat on a red tiger-stripe cushion. He wears a pink and white flower garland and a gold-toned necklace. Behind him hangs a deep red velvet drape. The figure is an appearance-based candidate for the presiding teacher (a person), seated on a flower-decorated peetha during a temple event, with the overlay attributing it to the Nithyanandapedia archive.
