A single person in an orange-saffron robe and wrap stands barefoot on a woven mat in front of a granite shrine platform, bending forward at the waist with hands together in reverence. Behind the platform, a deity murti draped in pink and white cloth and garlanded with marigold and multicolored flower strands sits within a gilded niche, with brass oil lamps and a kalasha-style offering on the stone ledge. Carved stone pillars frame the shrine, with a small relief panel showing a seated figure to the left, and red-and-white striped drapes and an orange canopy surround the open-sided pavilion. The person has a rudraksha mala hanging from the neck.
