Two gold-framed shrines flank the stage, each with a garlanded deity murti seated on a blue cloth, with gold attendant figures between them, marigold garlands, and a deep red curtain behind. Silver lion sculptures sit at the throne's base. The scene is a photograph taken from the front of the stage, showing a dais decorated for a spiritual gathering.

A seated man in a saffron-orange robe and a matching orange turban sits on a silver throne with lion-shaped armrests on a raised stage, in front of a golden Nandi bull and a microphone stand. Garlanded with yellow and orange flowers, a golden deity murti in a gilded arched niche stands on the left and another on the right, both in blue dhotis, and a gilded figure stands at the throne's side. Red curtains hang behind, and a bench with brass rails sits in front of the stage.
