A six-panel collage of daily temple seva activities at a KAILASA Singapore centre. The largest panel shows a group of about nine people kneeling and smiling on a red floral mat before a shrine with three deity murtis decorated with garlands, a yellow wall and hanging flower strings. Two men in white, one bare-chested with a rudraksha mala, sit at the front; women wear saris, kurtas and blouses. Other panels show volunteers in casual clothes hanging green leaf garlands at a doorway, packing white bags on a mat, two people seated near a low table with puja items and a brass plate, and a bookshelf being decorated. A rightmost panel shows people wrapping packets on a mat beside a wall portrait of a bearded figure wearing a large mala. Panels depict seva work, not a single ceremony.2022-07-12Photo 66792972022-07-12 +1 copiesA six-panel collage of a temple puja in a yellow-walled shrine room, with three deity figures dressed in garlands and red and gold garments on a decorated altar.
