Puja

 'Puja' means morning prayers to greet the morning sun. It was early when I arrived. The mist was still over the temple and it had this spiritual air to it. People were burning anything that could find to keep warm. It was so cold. Vermillion powder is being sold, that's the red dot they put on their foreheads. Flowers and other accoutrements are being purchased ton bring to the temple for the priest to bless. Some are left at the temple, the rest are brought home to bless the family. Non Hindus are not allowed inside the main temple. I was able to see the other shrines.
