A large seated congregation of devotees performs a group puja in a spacious hall with cream walls, red curtains and framed deity portraits on the back wall. Many men and boys wear white dhotis with gold borders and white shirts, while several monks in saffron-orange robes and rudraksha malas sit in front. Some hold small brass lamps or oil lamps and raise them in ritual offering, and brass vessels, plates and bowls sit on mats before them. A watermarked-free view shows the seated rows stretching into the distance under bright ceiling lights.
