A photograph inside a temple shrine showing a central deity murti seated on a throne, draped in a lavender-grey cloth with red border and garlanded with white jasmine and red flowers, with a black shivalinga-like form behind a garland at the top. Two smaller seated figurines flank the central form, each garlanded. In front, a large tray of red roses and white jasmine garlands surrounds a plate on a green silk cloth, with brass bells, a conch shell with a flower, brass vessels, a small oil lamp and flower-filled plates on a patterned cloth. At right, many steel bowls hold savoury snacks and sweets as offerings. A sign reads KAILASA THIRUCHENGODU. Gold-framed portraits hang behind and a trident leans at left. No people are visible.
