Overhead view of a brass puja arrangement on a white cloth over a purple leaf-patterned fabric. Two brass plates hold red and pink rose petals, a brass oil lamp with a lit flame sits on a third plate, and a small brass bell, a brass sprinkler with a handle, a brass cup, a small brass dish, a brass kalasha-style vessel and a pair of rudraksha earrings lie nearby, with loose rose petals scattered across the cloth. No people are visible; this is a ritual offering setup.
