A seated figure in a red-brown robe and orange-red headwrap sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, wearing a long garland of red and white flowers, gold necklaces and bangles. Several men in white kurtas and a man in a striped shirt stand bending forward with hands folded, offering respect. A golden deity murti with a raised hand stands behind the throne, and a gold lion-form sculpture sits beside it. A patterned red carpet covers the floor and a blue-and-pink decorated column frames the background.

November 17 20132013-11-17A seated figure in an orange-red saffron robe and matching red turban sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a carved gold back and red cushions, a rudraksha-style beaded mala and a large garland around the neck, eyes closed, hands resting open on the armrests. Two men in white shirts and white dhotis stand nearby: one at left bends forward toward the throne, the other at right, with palms pressed together in namaste, is accompanied by a younger man in white. Red curtains, a gold lamp stand and a gold chariot-like carved panel frame the scene on a red-carpeted stage. Several people in white attire attend the seated figure, consistent with a devotional gathering.2015-11-22November 22 20152015-11-22July 08 20172017-07-08 +1 copiesNovember 22 20152015-11-22November 22 20152015-11-22Ceremonial scene in a temple-style hall with red curtains and a large painted deity mural behind.
