A barefoot man in saffron-orange robes with a long orange-and-gold wrap and a yellow-orange beaded mala necklace walks forward across a stone platform in front of a shrine. Behind him a seated figure in orange sits in meditation position, and behind that a golden arched niche holds a deity murti with a trident and a colourful garland, flanked by another decorated figure. Marigold and red flower garlands hang around the shrine, and brass lamps and offerings sit on the altar. Stone carvings line the pillars and a red curtain hangs at left.
