A home shrine photographed head-on. A large framed portrait of a long-haired man in saffron-orange robes and a gold necklace, with his palm raised in blessing, is mounted behind a rust-coloured draped cloth on a pedestal. The portrait is labelled with no readable caption visible. Beside it stands a framed black-and-white photograph of a man in ornate dress, red and white garlands are draped across the frames, and a painted Shiva with bull Nandi and a Ganesha picture hang at right. The pedestal sits on a yellow cloth embroidered with gold thread, flanked by two glass candle holders with white wax, a brass oil lamp (deepam) and jasmine flowers, with a crystal animal figure and figurines nearby. No physical people are present.

Photo 82846882022-03-26A shrine table draped in yellow cloth holds a folded rust-red cloth bundle topped by a small brooch, with a brass oil lamp and white flowers in front. Behind it a large framed portrait shows a smiling man with long dark hair in orange robes and a white flower garland, raising one hand in blessing before a banyan-root backdrop; the portrait's presentation matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of long swept-back hair and orange clothing, and it is a depiction, not a person in the room. Beside it is a smaller black-and-white framed photograph, red and white flower garlands are draped on frames, a purple figurine sits to the left, and a painted Shiva with trident and bull sits at the upper right with a deity mural behind. No physical people are visible.2022-03-25 +1 copiesA home shrine table draped in yellow cloth with gold embroidery, holding a folded rust-orange cloth bundle at its centre, a copper oil lamp surrounded by white frangipani flowers, and two clear glass candle holders. Behind the bundle hangs a large framed colour portrait of a smiling man with long dark hair, orange robes and a white flower garland, his right hand raised in blessing; he is labelled as a portrait, not a physical person. To the left stands a silver ornate frame with a black-and-white photograph of a seated figure in ceremonial dress wearing a crown, adorned with red and white flower garlands. A purple stone or crystal figurine of a bull-like animal, a small cream elephant figure, and a framed deity mural of Shiva-style imagery with a white bull complete the arrangement, with artificial white roses and a flower arrangement at the right.2022-05-13 +1 copiesKAILASA SAN FERNANDO, TRINIDAD & TOBAGO on 3/21/20222022-03-21 +1 copiesA shrine table draped in yellow cloth with gold embroidery holds a folded rust-orange shawl with a gold brooch, an oil lamp with white flower petals, white and green artificial flowers, and crystal vases.
