November 06 20102010-11-06A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi sits on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions, hands folded in his lap. He wears an orange-saffron robe draped over the shoulder and a long necklace of dark rudraksha beads. Bare feet rest near offering plates containing apples and white flowers in the foreground. Behind him, gold-coloured deity murti are adorned with yellow and pink flower garlands, and gold oil lamps with bird-shaped finials stand beside a red curtain and green foliage.2010-09-08 +1 copiesA photograph of a ritual puja at an ornate temple-style stage. A figure with long dark hair, wearing an orange-saffron robe, a rudraksha mala and a gold bracelet, sits cross-legged with hands folded on a large gold throne with red cushions. A probable Swamiji appearance cue is the long swept-back hair with orange-saffron robe and rudraksha mala. Six people in white and cream ritual dress sit on the floor before him: two men in white dhotis, a woman in a white sari, a woman in a cream sari, a boy in white, and a man in white with hands joined in prayer. One priest in a white dhoti holds a flower or offering. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, a vase of orange and yellow flowers sits on a low table, and a large painted backdrop of deity figures in red and pink surrounds the scene.2011-02-26December 23 20092009-12-23September 14 20102010-09-14August 08 20102010-08-08 +1 copiesOctober 28 20102010-10-28 +1 copiesA seated man with closed eyes sits in meditation before an ornate gold repoussé backdrop.
