A room interior with a large painted board showing a bearded sage in a red-orange robe seated on a lion, with rudraksha beads, a dark cap, and one hand raised in blessing.

A glass display cabinet on the left holds small deity figurines and statues. A painted lion and sage figure is depicted, not a physical person. No people are visible in the room.

A man with long, swept-back dark hair and a full beard stands in profile at left, wearing a rust-red shawl with gold-edged borders, a red-and-gold garment and a red thread on his wrist. He faces a wall shrine holding framed portraits, a framed painting of multiple deities, a small brass oil lamp, marigold flowers and a small bronze deity figure. On a lower shelf stand a wooden altar with a sacred figure and blue-and-gold garlands.

A partially visible person at far left holds a phone; one additional person is visible in the background doorway.2017-03-11March 01 20182018-03-01March 01 20182018-03-01A photograph of a wall display in a room with a white-painted ceiling of wooden planks.
