A priest with his back to the camera, bare-shouldered and wearing a white dhoti with a gold border, raises a lit oil lamp in his right hand toward a seated white statue. The statue is a sculpted murti of a seated figure wearing an orange-red turban, maroon robe with gold border, rudraksha-style beads and a gold chain, draped in orange and yellow marigold garlands and a white flower garland, with its right hand raised in blessing. It sits on a dark tiled peetha beside a red velvet backdrop. In front stands a small round wooden table holding a brass plate with bananas, brass cups, a small lamp and incense, and a brass vase of orange flowers sits nearby.2021-01-14June 23 20142014-06-23 +2 copiesInside a plain block-walled room, a bare-chested man in white dhoti kneels at left, lifting a brass plate during puja.
