A photograph inside a temple shrine showing a man in a rust-red dhoti-style garment and rust-red shawl bending forward with his head lowered toward a dark stone platform. He has long black dreadlocked hair falling forward, a beard, gold bangles on his wrist and a yellow-and-white flower garland draped over his shoulders. Before him on the platform sit a rolled rust-coloured cloth and a golden lion-throne seat flanked by brass lion figures, with a deity murti adorned in red and white flower garlands. Yellow marigold garlands hang along the stone ledge and pillars, and maroon and gold drapes frame the doorway. A camera operator is partially visible at the right edge.
