The deity has a red head cloth, garlands of yellow and red flowers, beaded necklaces, and a teal and pink draped garment, with a pink curtain behind. Red-painted rocks and scattered hibiscus flowers surround the base. A small stone plaque below reads Dakshinamurthi shrine in Kannada and English. In the background, several people in orange and red robes sit near the shrine. No one is standing in front of the statue.
