Indoor shrine photograph with gold-painted walls and a gold canopy. At left, a standing statue of a smiling man in a red-and-orange turban, saffron-toned draped garment, and a long garland of white and multicoloured flowers with beaded necklaces stands beside a dark stone elephant-headed deity seated on a pedestal, draped in red and striped silk and garlanded with yellow marigolds. At centre, a dark stone deity murti stands within a golden arched niche framed by orange and yellow marigold garlands, wearing a red cloth, ornate jewelled collar and a pink turban-like headdress. In front sits a brass plate heaped with yellow flowers, and a brass bell, brass trident, brass bowls and small oil lamps are arranged on a cloth. A framed black-and-white photo with a trident hangs at right, and a sign reads KAILASA THIRUCHENGODU ERODE. A timestamp reads 07 Sep 2024.
