A white stone Sri Yantra-style shivalinga base stands on a white marble platform in a shrine with gold-coloured walls and a dark floor. A thin stream of milk or white liquid pours down over the stepped pyramid-shaped stone from a golden vessel above, as in abhishekam. A brass lamp stand with a bowl sits at the right, and a corner of a purple and pink cloth with sequins is visible at the left. No people are visible.
