A home shrine table covered with flowers, figurines and offerings, backed by framed images. Central framed picture shows Lord Shiva seated with a trident, crescent moon and tiger skin, garlanded with marigold and red flower strands. To the left, a framed photograph of a smiling man in orange robes with a beaded mala and raised hand stands in front of a tree; this person is a portrait, not a physical person present. Right of Shiva, a blue-backed picture of a goddess with a gold crown and ornaments. Oil lamps burn, one in front of a framed carved temple-pillar image. Offerings include a bowl of food, fruit and marigolds, and rows of small deity figurines are arranged on the cloth. No physical people are present.
