A photograph of a home-style puja table with a small figure seated on a red cloth, dressed in orange with a headwrap and bare chest, beside a brass Nataraja-style figure against a red backdrop. Several lit oil lamps (diyas) burn on a brass tray, with incense sticks, a brass bowl and a brass vessel in the foreground. A person in pink sleeves is partly visible at the left edge. The figure is a statue or murti, not a physical person, so the a person candidate is a depiction.2022-06-07KAILASA SAN JOSE, USA on 5/29/20222022-05-29 +11 copiesKAILASA SAN JOSE, USA on 11/20/20212021-11-20 +2 copiesA small household altar with a seated figurine of a bearded man wearing a red turban and red-toned robes, placed on a red cloth-draped table.
