Last week for the culmination of Navratri, Terran and I visited Malai Mandir, a nearby temple.
I should NOT have had my camera inside the temple, but ...
The shoe rack outside, before entering the temple. The bottoms of my feet were dirty for days after this visit.
Can you see the gray smudge on Terran's forehead? It's the ash of the offerings that were burned (I think?) that we were invited to place strategically with the fourth finger of our hand.
