Behind him are two large deity murti figures with gold crowns and ornate jewelled necklaces, one in an orange turban and one in a red-brown and teal sari with a crown, set against a backdrop of yellow, red and white flower garlands. A decorated offering arrangement with flower garlands and a gold-framed plate lies in front of the figures. Stone pillars frame the shrine.2007-12-30A 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 photograph inside a temple-like shrine hall showing a man in orange robes and an orange turban bending forward to touch or adorn a white-clad figure seated before a flower-decorated altar. Behind him stand two large gold-toned deity murti, one wearing an orange turban and layered necklaces, the other in a teal and purple sari with ornate jewellery. The altar is draped in a blue cloth with garlands of yellow and red flowers, and a small seated white-and-orange figure sits in front with brass lamps, a covered brass vessel and terracotta pots around the base. The man is the sole physical person visible; the seated figure appears to be a statue.2007-12-30Photograph of a shrine with a standing male priest in orange robes and an orange turban offering a lit oil lamp (aarti) before a decorated deity pair. The large gold-faced murti in the background wears crown, jewellery and an orange headdress, beside a female figure in a teal and magenta sari. Both are framed by garlands of yellow, red and white flowers. Below them sits a seated white-and-orange robed figure.2007-12-30January 1st 2013A photograph inside a temple shrine. A smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair and a rudraksha mala stands at left in a flowing saffron-orange robe, raising one hand in greeting. Beside him stands a large gold-coloured metal deity murti of a seated male deity with a white dhoti and gold ornaments, flanked by a consort figure in a red and gold sari with a crown and jewelled necklaces. Both are draped with thick garlands of yellow, red, white and green flowers. A small golden shivalinga-style pedestal sits on a brass tray in the foreground, and a golden arch frames a small figure at the base. Red curtains and gold-painted carved pillars surround the shrine.2006-09-23 +2 copiesA photograph of a standing man in saffron-orange robes with a gold-bordered cloth, wearing a long garland of white and red flowers and a gold pendant, raising one hand in greeting with a smile. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders and a red mark is on his forehead. Behind him is a large floral arch of yellow, red, purple and white blossoms framing two golden deity murtis wearing jewelled necklaces and crowns, with a seated figure in the centre draped in flower garlands. In front, a white-clothed altar holds bananas, brass oil lamps, a kalasha and a small saffron-clad figure garlanded with white flowers. The backdrop is decorated with yellow flowers and green foliage shaped into mountains and clouds.December 30 20072007-12-30January 01 20132013-01-01
