A photograph of a home shrine with a yellow cloth-covered altar. Centre back stands a life-size cutout or printed image of a smiling man in a red-orange turban with a vertical tilak, wearing a saffron-orange garment, a long multi-strand rudraksha mala and a flower garland, and holding a gold trident. Framed photos of a man with long dark hair in orange robes flank him, one resting on a wooden stand beside an open book with a red and white flower garland. On the altar sit two carved pale stone elephants with a jade base, a brass oil lamp (diya) on a tray of white and yellow flowers, a small bowl of white flowers and grains, red lotus artificial flowers, a clear glass dome and a black lingam-shaped stone. No physical people are visible; the figures shown are printed or sculpted.
