A photograph of a corner shrine set up in a room with a window. A large cutout or life-size printed figure of a smiling man sits cross-legged on a red cloth, wearing a red turban with a tilak, red robes, layered rudraksha malas, white flower garlands and bangles, holding a trident in one hand and raising the other in blessing. Swamiji (probable): the figure wears a red turban, rudraksha malas and ceremonial garlands, a compatible presentation, but as a depiction it is not a physically present person. Before him are a gold yantra plate, a white marble Ganesha statue, a brass kalasha, a tray with bananas, apples and a white rose, a bowl of red liquid, a small gold shrine and a framed deity picture on the wall. A handwritten sign on the wall reads KAILASA SAN DIEGO.
