A photo of a home altar set up for devotion, with a yellow draped table in front of a cream wall. A large life-size statue of a smiling man wears a saffron-orange turban, orange robe, rudraksha mala and a white flower garland, and holds a trident; this figure is a statue, not a person, so no physical person is present. Around it stand framed photos, a large printed poster of a standing man with a trident and bare-chested saffron wrap, a framed tanjore-style painting of a seated figure in pink robes on a throne, bronze deity figurines, flower garlands, brass lamps, a kalasha-type pot, and offerings of flowers and fruit on plates. A small framed photo of a woman with long dark hair and an open book with flower garland are also on the table, and a framed Shiva image is at right. Setting suggests a devotional puja space.

A life-size figure in a rust-orange turban, orange robe and rudraksha mala, holding a trident, stands at centre; it appears to be a statue or cutout rather than a living person. Behind are a framed tanjore-style painting of a seated figure on a golden throne, a tall poster of a standing figure holding a trident, and framed photos of a smiling figure in orange with garlands. Brass kalasha, bronze deity figures with garlands, a brass oil lamp, flowers and a red-and-white book sit on the altar.
