A seated figure in orange-saffron robes wears a red and white flower garland and a rudraksha-style necklace; the figure's appearance is consistent with the presentation of the candidate, so this is a person seated in darshan. Flanking the doorway are two large painted deity murti figures with multiple arms, gold jewellery, and red and green dhoti-style garments. Below, seated devotees in orange saris and white attire sit on mats; two women in orange clothing on the left perform puja with a tray of offerings, and oil lamps stand on brass stands. A large gold canopy hangs above the throne with bells suspended beside it.2013-06-17
