Two standing figures in orange and teal with gold bangles flank the central figure. In front sits a small white and yellow statue of a seated figure with hands raised in blessing and a yellow turban, holding a yellow flower. Brass puja vessels, a small lamp and a ritual bell rest on the floor. Gold-patterned walls and red drapes surround the shrine. The people are statues and figures rather than physical people.2011-10-05April 17 20122012-04-17A decorated deity murti, shown as a seated figure with a tall orange-and-maroon turban, a gold hooded serpent canopy above, golden armlets and a gold-and-red necklace, draped in a white cloth with a red-and-gold border and framed with yellow and purple flower garlands. Behind it hang blue and pink fabric drapes. In the foreground a small white statue of a seated figure in orange robes and an orange turban, hands in anjali, wears a gold-toned rudraksha-style mala. Brass oil lamps stand on either side of the foreground figure and a brass lamp stand on the right, with a small painted figure in blue at the far right.

Long garlands of yellow and purple-magenta flowers hang from the figure. Behind it stands a large deity murti with a gold crown and ornate gold jewellery, draped in pink and magenta silks. Brass oil lamps flank the shrine, and silver and brass vessels with a kalasha-style pot sit on a white-draped platform in front. The statue is a statue, not a living person, and the scene holds no physical people.2010-09-15July 17 20112011-07-17November 14 20112011-11-14 +1 copies
