Interior photo of a KAILASA temple shrine with a large golden canopy and red drapes flanking a central deity murti seated on a throne, decorated with marigold and rose garlands and a red and gold figure at the centre. In the foreground a bare-chested priest in white dhoti and a headwrap stands at the left with palms pressed together, facing a black stone Shivalinga-style murti adorned with flower garlands and a white tripundra mark. Brass lamps, a bowl of petals and a small kalasha sit on the marble platform. A printed sign at right reads KAILASA TORONTO CANADA. The seated figure is a deity murti, not a physical person, so a person is none.
