Around the dais, several shaved-headed devotees in white dhotis with yellow shawls sit on an orange mat, some with folded hands, others holding small items. Trays with fruit, offerings and brass oil lamps lie on the mat in front.2010-08-09A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala and long swept-back hair sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, a gold trident and gold staff beside him.
