A photograph of a temple shrine with two painted deity murti seated side by side on a red-draped platform, garlanded with yellow and red marigold strands and decorated with orange and red flowers. A small seated figure in front of the deities, wrapped in orange cloth and partly covered by a red shawl, sits before brass lamps and offering trays on a stone platform. At the lower right, a standing person in an orange robe bends forward toward the platform. Stone pillars with carved reliefs frame the shrine, with orange curtains hanging at the sides and greenery behind.

A photograph of a shrine with two deity murtis seated on a raised golden peetha, decorated with flower garlands in red, yellow and green and vibrant floral arrangements. A figure in an orange-saffron robe and wrap, with long hair, bows forward with hands together before the shrine on a stone platform, with a patterned mat at their feet. Brass lamps and a pink curtain frame the scene, with an open-sided pavilion setting. The bowing figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji (probable) in a devotional pose, with long hair and saffron clothing as the qualifying cues.

A person in orange clothing bows with hands folded before a shrine decorated with marigolds, red and white flowers and green foliage. Inside the shrine stand deity murtis with crowns and jewelled adornments, one seated on a silver throne-like peetha, dressed in red garments and garlanded with yellow and multicoloured flower strands. Brass lamps stand on the granite platform beneath the floral display. A saffron cloth hangs on a pillar to the right, and a red-and-white striped wall runs behind.

Brass lamps and offering plates surround the shrine, and floral arrangements hang on the maroon cloth-draped pillars. In the foreground, a person in an orange robe bends forward toward the altar with hands near the offerings, while another orange-robed figure sits at the lower left edge. The scene suggests a puja or darshan at a temple shrine.
