Leave the sanctum to the priests
Only the priests enter the inner chamber or touch the Deity. Do not touch the statues or the carvings.
Only the priests enter the inner chamber or touch the Deity, so leave that to them. Hand your offering to the priest sitting outside the chamber instead of walking in. Temples also ask visitors not to touch the carvings, which are delicate.
