[edit] Fair Use rationale

• The seva is conducted with the temple and cameras are not allowed in the temple campus. Thus there is no freely available image apart from what is circulated by the temple official organization.
• The image is used to illustrate the ritual and cannot be used for any other purpose.
• The image has been provided for the benefit and better understanding of pilgrims to the temple
• The image resolution has been scaled down to meet Wikipedia's norm for 'fair use' regulation.
