A photograph of a life-size cutout or standee of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes with a white turban, rudraksha mala necklaces, and a trident held in one hand, the hand raised in blessing. The figure is printed on a flat board, so it is a depiction, not a living person. In front stands a yellow-draped altar table with a white marble Ganesha statue, a gold framed yantra plate, bananas, red apples, a brass plate of offerings with white flowers, a kalasha-like vessel, and a small shiva linga with rudraksha. A handwritten sign reading KAILASA SAN DIEG... is taped to the wall at left, and a red-and-white dressed deity figure stands at right by a window.
