A photograph of an abhishekam ritual inside an ornate gilded shrine niche. A young priest with his back to the camera, wearing an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl and a rudraksha mala, pours liquid over a golden-brown metal murti of Vinayagar standing on a pedestal. The shrine behind is decorated with intricate gold carvings and a pierced lattice arch. The caption on the image labels the ritual as Vinayagar and Chandikeshwara Abhishekam for the Nithyanandotsavam Purvanga Utsavam.
