Garlands and flowers are visible near the altar.2014-01-30March 01 20182018-03-01A photograph at a red-painted shrine doorway with a barred gate and a deity murti inside, decorated with red flower garlands. In the foreground, a figure seen from behind wears an orange and yellow wrap, a red turban, a white flower garland and a yellow marigold garland, with hands folded in prayer. Beside them stands an elderly man with long white beard and hair in orange robes and a rudraksha mala, hands clasped. A younger man in a yellow t-shirt stands at the right, and another orange-clad person is partly visible at the left edge. The turbaned figure is an appearance-based probable candidate for a person, identified by the red turban, flower garlands and orange wrap, though the face is not visible. Four people are visible.2015-10-03A person in a rust-red unstitched robe with a saffron-orange waist sash and a white flower garland stands in profile at left, facing a shrine niche in a dimly lit stone temple.

Behind them, several men in orange and saffron robes stand or kneel with hands folded in prayer, one with a gold-banded white shawl and a sacred marking on the forehead.

A woven basket sits on the railing and marigold petals lie on the grille below.2015-10-27July 07 20142014-07-07 +1 copiesJune 27 20142014-06-27January 20 20142014-01-20May 09 20122012-05-09 +2 copiesJune 24 20142014-06-24
