A dark black shivalinga stands on a golden yoni-pitha base inside a temple shrine, dressed with a green and gold silk cloth and a jewelled white and red decorative garment. Cream-coloured flower garlands and a white flower sit on top, with three horizontal white lines marked on the linga. Behind it, a cobra hood of gold rises above a large blue-skinned deity statue with ornate jewellery. Two gold-toned statues flank the base: a standing figure in brown and gold robes with rudraksha beads on the left, and a standing figure in a blue sari with a gold crown and flower garland on the right. A small gold arched shrine with a deity figure sits at upper left. No physical people are visible.
