A photograph inside a temple shrine where a shaved-headed priest in a rust-red robe with white ash markings on his arms kneels in the foreground, holding a tiered brass oil lamp with several flames. Two standing deity murti flank the entrance, painted with multiple arms, crowns and orange-red dhoti with green sashes. Behind a golden throne-like altar, a framed portrait shows a bearded figure in an orange turban and orange robe. Several saffron-robed attendants sit in the background performing puja. Brass lamps line the walls and a patterned rug lies on the white floor.
