A temple abhishekam in progress at Nithyanandeshwara Paramashiva Devalayam, Adi KAILASA. A shirtless priest in an orange-red cloth wrapped at the waist and draped over the shoulder, with white tilak markings on his arm and chest, pours water from a raised brass vessel over a white-painted deity murti of a Shiva lingam-style figure with a tall crown-like form. The murti wears a green cloth, and dark stone attendant figures flank it. Behind is gold-framed arch ornamentation and red-gold brocade drapery. Evening lighting with flowing water over the image.
