A photograph inside a temple shrine with a gold-framed central throne. Two large painted dvarapala-style guardian statues stand on pedestals on either side, each with four arms and gold crowns, wearing orange dhotis and green sashes. Between them, a golden throne-like seat holds a framed photograph of a smiling man in an orange turban and saffron robe, with a tiger-skin cloth draped over the seat. Brass oil lamps stand along both walls. In the foreground, a woman in orange sari sits on the white marble floor writing or reading beside a silver tray with offerings. Further back, a figure in orange sits before the shrine with saffron-robed monks in dark red garments nearby, and a lit oil lamp burns on a golden stand.
