A long table draped in green cloth holds rows of white paper bowls filled with vegetarian dishes: salads, rice preparations, curries, pickles, lentils, fried snacks, sweets and colourful relishes, prepared as a Naivediyam or prasadam offering. A red rope barrier runs along the left edge. Behind the table, gold-framed shrine niches contain a dark deity murti in gold ornament and a green-and-gold deity figure beside a brass oil lamp. Cups are stacked at the far end of the table, and a silver urn stands at the left. No people are visible.
