A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gilded throne-like seat (peetha) in a decorated shrine-style hall. The central seated figure wears an orange-red garment, a white flower garland and gold bangles, with a red tilak on the forehead. Two large painted statues flank the throne, each with multiple arms, crowns, red dhoti-style lower garments and ornate gold necklaces, one holding a trident-like object. Red and gold sequined drapery hangs above, with brass bells and hanging chains behind the throne. Dark silhouettes of a few seated devotees appear in the lower foreground. The central figure appears to be a person, seated in the role of guru on the peetha, wearing orange-red robes, a flower garland and gold ornaments.
