A photograph of an ornate golden throne shrine in a temple niche, framed by a red-and-yellow floral border. At the centre sits a framed portrait labelled "PARAMAHAMSA NITHYANANDA", showing a smiling man in an orange turban and orange shawl with a red bindi, displayed as a depiction and not a living person. Beneath it lie a tiger-skin cloth, two golden lion-headed armrests, a golden umbrella canopy, hanging brass bells and oil lamps, and black beaded garlands. Three people in red-orange robes with gold borders sit with their backs to the camera before the throne, offering to the shrine. Two statues of deities with raised hands stand at the edges.
