Behind the platform stands a deity murti with blue-skinned figures, garlands of orange and yellow marigolds, and a bare-chested stone image wrapped in cloth. Brass oil lamps, a brass kalasha-style vessel and a small lit flame sit on the platform. Red and white pillars and a red wall frame the open-air shrine at night.2011-12-10A single person in an orange-saffron robe and wrap stands barefoot on a woven mat in front of a granite shrine platform, bending forward at the waist with hands together in reverence.

Carved stone pillars frame the shrine, with a small relief panel showing a seated figure to the left, and red-and-white striped drapes and an orange canopy surround the open-sided pavilion.

Behind the platform stand deity murtis draped in pink and white cloth with garlands of marigolds and purple flowers, including a blue figure at the centre. Brass oil lamps and offering plates with flowers sit on the stone altar. Red-and-white striped walls, orange curtains and a corrugated roof frame the scene, with palm trees beyond the open pillared hall. The man is in a respectful puja posture, and the figure's appearance matches the orange-clad sannyasi cues only loosely, so identity is uncertain.2010-10-20 +1 copiesOctober 20 20102010-10-20March 03 20112011-03-03 +1 copiesA person in an orange robe stands barefoot on a dark mat, bowing forward with hands together before a stone shrine platform.
