Photograph of a temple hall with glossy white floor and painted pillars in green, pink and orange. Two tall gilded-and-orange dvarapala-style figures with multiple arms and crowns stand on either side of a doorway. Inside, a large framed portrait of a smiling man in orange turban and orange robe sits atop a golden throne with a tiger-skin cushion, flanked by brass oil lamps (deepa). Three figures in dark red-brown robes sit at the base of the throne. In the foreground, a shaved-headed priest in orange clothing with a red shawl sits on a mat at a low table with a laptop and puja items. The portrait is a printed picture, not a physical person in the scene.

A photograph inside a temple hall with a gold-framed throne and a framed portrait of a smiling man in an orange turban, set on a gold throne draped with a tiger-skin cloth, behind an arched doorway.

Two priests in white dhotis and rudraksha malas sit on the red carpet in the foreground reading from a book. Several saffron-robed devotees kneel in front of the throne, and brass oil lamps stand on either side of the shrine. Visible text in the corner reads a copyright and source credit line.
