A dark maroon curtain hangs behind the shrine and a white floor-standing air conditioner is at the right edge.2014-08-21August 25 20142014-08-25August 22 20142014-08-22September 09 20132013-09-09August 31 20112011-08-31September 18 20232023-09-18June 14 20142014-06-14June 03 20152015-06-03 +1 copiesA photograph of a temple shrine with a large deity murti decorated with multicolored flower garlands in yellow, red, purple and white. A person in a long red-orange robe with long dark hair holds a brass lamp with a flame and incense smoke, performing aarti before the murti. Brass oil lamps and a brass kalasha-like vessel stand beside red drapes, and a smaller seated figure in orange robes and a red cap sits at the base of the shrine. The person's face is not clearly visible, so identity is uncertain and no specific claim is made.2008-12-23August 15 20182018-08-15Photograph of a Ganesha deity murti decorated with a dense garland frame of marigolds and multicolored flowers in red, yellow, green, white and purple, set before gold lion-supported pillars and a maroon curtain. A standing man in an orange-saffron dhoti and bare upper body, with long dark hair and white markings on his arms, raises a multi-wick oil lamp toward the deity with his right hand, holding a small bell in his left hand. Gold lion statues appear at the left edge. Yellow drapery covers the base of the altar. The scene suggests an aarti offering.2017-08-25
