Photo of a decorated home shrine for a daily Paduka Puja. Centre foreground: a pair of black rubber sandals (padukas) draped with marigolds, red ixora flowers, blue blossoms, green leaves and white frangipani, with rudraksha beads and gold-toned tassels hanging from them. Behind, a small figure with a red-and-gold turban, gold necklace and raised hand, labelled 'Sri Chakra' on a dark plate, sits beside a gold yantra on a black cushion. A framed orange-robed portrait with a marigold garland hangs above. Brass lamps, a conch, a red maraca, a drum and a brass Shiva-style figure with flowers sit on a silver tray with banana offerings in orange and white bowls, and a framed temple image stands at the right.
