A seated figure in a golden, ornate throne sits at the centre of a hall with bamboo screens and a standing fan. The figure wears a red-maroon robe, a long gold necklace and a rudraksha mala, and holds a hand raised in gesture. Seated devotees in saffron, orange and red robes line the floor on mats, with banana-leaf plates and water bottles before them. A trident stands behind the throne and a woman in white with a gold necklace stands at the right edge. Pale mats and a patterned rug lie on the floor.

Water bottles line a floor row, and a framed photo display stands at left. Visible people are seated devotees attending a Maheshwara Puja-style offering.

Foreground devotees wear orange saffron cloth with gold borders, bare-shouldered, many with long braided or natural hair, and some wear beaded bracelets. Banana-leaf or green plates with food, cups and water bottles sit before them. Further back, figures in white and orange stand and sit near a raised dais with a golden throne-like seat, a small figure at its base, and a kalasha-style vessel. Framed photographs and banners line the walls. Some people here appear to be in more casual clothing.2016-03-30March 30 20162016-03-30
