A smiling woman in orange sari with a white flower garland stands with palms pressed together in namaste on a black polished floor, a white-fringed headcloth on her head. Behind her, saffron-robed monks carry a golden staff topped with a trident and a multicoloured canopy umbrella. To the left, a white-clad priest holds a red-and-orange shawl and a plate near a black deity murti in an arched silver frame, garlanded with marigolds and multicoloured flower strands, sitting on a red stone mound with offerings, a brass lamp and a kolam rangoli pattern on the ground.2008-12-29November 09 20072007-11-09December 23 20082008-12-23A person in orange saffron robes with long dark hair bends forward with one hand resting on a gilded shivalingam decorated with garlands of yellow marigolds, red roses and white flowers, and rudraksha beads.
