A printed sign reading "TORONTO KAILASH" stands in front of the altar. Several devotees sit on the floor: a woman in a red sari in the foreground, a woman in white beside her, a man in a white shirt and dark trousers at right, and others in orange and white garments near the altar. A kalasha-like pot and offerings sit on the altar base. The shrine appears to be a satsang setting in a temple hall.
