Behind him, large deity murti are dressed with multicoloured flower garlands; a central figure holds a trident and wears a crown, flanked by two other decorated figures in orange and purple silk. Brass oil lamps stand on the stone ledge, and green curtains hang at the right. Appearance cues do not clearly match a known identity, so the person is described by role only.2016-12-02A standing man in saffron-orange robes and a long gold-and-rudraksha ceremonial necklace smiles beside a flower-decorated shrine, with a long black hair, a red tilak on his forehead, and a raised hand. Behind him stands a deity murti with a crown, trident and a flower-draped kalasha, flanked by a richly garlanded arch of red, yellow, purple and white blossoms. A garlanded figure of a seated saint in orange sits in front of a flower-covered lingam-like form. Brass oil lamps and a banana leaf frame the scene. The man has long, swept-back hair and rudraksha-style adornments, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) in person, consistent with the page's pada puja event.2013-01-01A standing man in long, swept-back hair and orange saffron robes, wearing a white and red flower garland and a gold necklace, smiles and raises his right hand in a blessing gesture before a richly decorated shrine. Behind him, golden deity figures in orange cloth and crowns stand beneath a gold arch framed by multicoloured marigold and rose garlands. In front, a dark stone linga wrapped in orange cloth and jewelled garlands sits beside a white marble seated saint figure in orange robes with a yellow garland and raised hand, with a brass oil lamp on the platform. Scattered petals lie on the stone floor.2011-12-11A photograph of a person in a temple shrine standing before a large golden deity murti of Shiva, decorated with multicoloured garlands in red, yellow, purple, green and white. The standing figure wears an orange saffron garment over a leopard-print top, a gold necklace and a rudraksha-style mala, and raises both palms in greeting while smiling. Behind the central murti stand additional gold figures and a further garlanded image to the right. Brass oil lamps and a small white offering sit on the platform in front, with a golden canopy arch overhead.2013-03-10December 11 20112011-12-11 +1 copiesDecember 30 20172017-12-30A man with long swept-back hair stands in front of a decorated shrine, wearing saffron-orange robes, a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace, with his palms joined in greeting and a smile. Behind him stand two large deity murti figures draped in garlands of yellow, red, purple and white flowers, one holding a trident. In front of the murti is a golden linga with a crown and a small saffron-clad figure seated before it. A tall oil lamp with flower garlands stands at the right beside a saffron-robed sannyasi statue. A photographer with a camera is visible at the lower left. Probable Swamiji (long hair, saffron robes, rudraksha mala and gold necklace) stands in person at the shrine, greeting the gathering.2012-01-01
