Photograph inside a colourful temple hall with painted pillars in pink, green and orange and a gilded arched doorway. A man with his back to the camera in saffron robes holds a lit multi-tier aarti lamp toward a seated figure on a large gold throne. The seated man wears saffron robes, a red-and-white flower garland and a rudraksha mala, and makes a teaching hand gesture. Two painted gold deity murti stand on either side of the doorway, and saffron-robed attendants sit on the floor before the throne. Brass oil lamps stand at the right edge, and a gilded chandelier hangs above the throne.
