A home shrine set into a stone fireplace mantel, decorated with pink and purple flowers. Above, a large portrait shows a smiling man in a red-orange turban with a white flower garland, rudraksha malas and a turquoise pendant, holding flowers, labelled with no readable caption. Beside it hangs a framed print of a man in orange robes with a white bead necklace and a pendant, making a blessing gesture; a small pendant medallion with a crown-like emblem sits at his chest. Another print shows a blue-skinned deity with a trident and a crescent, and a smaller print of Ganesha hangs at the left. Below the mantel, dried grasses and cream flowers stand in a vase, and brass bells hang from a stand beside a black rudraksha mala draped over a Sri Chakra plate. Brass figures of Ganesha and a deity murti sit among pink flowers, with a small brass oil lamp and a rudraksha bead in front.
