Outdoor temple courtyard with a white stepped plinth bearing a black stone Nandi or deity murti wearing a red and yellow marigold garland. In the centre, a man in an orange saffron robe sits cross-legged with hands folded, his long hair swept back; the appearance is consistent with a person candidate, though not certain. Beside and behind him, several devotees in white clothes with yellow shawls sit in meditation. White and grey pigeons feed on the paved floor in the foreground. Palm trees and flowering shrubs surround the courtyard.
