A seated man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with garlands of red, yellow, white and blue flowers. He wears a gold necklace and red-and-white beaded mala, and raises one hand in blessing. Two devotees in white clothes kneel at the base of the throne, one in a yellow dress and one in white with a red top, bowing with heads lowered to the gilded footstool. A golden trident stands to the left and a golden lion-form armrest is visible on the right, with a deity mural behind. This is a photo of a throne-side darshan scene.
