A silver-topped wooden peetha or stand holds a ritual arrangement of pink, red and purple flowers, yellow turmeric or kumkum powder, white petals and dark brown powder, with green stalks bound by a tied bundle. A woman's hand in a bangle reaches in to place or adjust the offering, while a second wrist wears rudraksha beads. Her gold-yellow silk sari and layered necklaces are visible at right. Stacked yellow blocks and a silver bowl sit at left, with seated devotees in orange and red garments behind.
