A photograph of a golden throne with red cushioning set against a banner reading Bhagavad Gita and Dhyana Satsang. Seated on the throne is a life-sized statue of a figure with an orange-and-red turban, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces, and a long red and orange garland, raising one hand in blessing. A shirtless priest in orange dhoti kneels at lower left, facing the figure and offering a ritual gesture beside a brass tray. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, and flower garlands and petals decorate the platform. A banner beside the throne shows a painted scene of archers and warriors in a battlefield, with a painted Krishna-like figure on the right. The statue is a depiction, not a living person.
