The murti wears a white ornate crown, a garland of yellow flowers, white embroidered garments and holds a red-tipped sword and other red-tipped implements. Behind it stands a gold ornamental backdrop with scrolling foliate patterns. Two seated attendants in orange cloth sit to the right and centre, one wearing a rudraksha mala and tilak. A silver covered pot and a brass vessel sit on the raised platform, with a pink-and-teal cloth beneath. The scene is a puja with an aarti-style lamp offering before the murti.2017-11-15November 15 20172017-11-15November 15 20172017-11-15 +1 copiesNovember 06 20182018-11-06November 15 20172017-11-15November 15 20172017-11-15October 29 20162016-10-29October 29 20162016-10-29October 29 20162016-10-29
