He wears a saffron-orange unstitched robe with a gold border, layered rudraksha and beaded malas, a dark red beaded waist belt with brass bells, and bead bracelets. His long dark hair falls past his shoulders, and he has a yellow tilak with a red dot on his forehead. He holds a silver trident in his left hand and raises his right hand in a speaking gesture. Small decorative offerings sit at his feet.2012-07-17Outdoor photo of young boys in ceremonial costume in front of green bamboo foliage. In the foreground a boy wears a tall gold crown with jewelled detailing, a gold necklace, flower garlands and a saffron, green and yellow striped garment, and holds a gold trident (trishul) and a small gold ritual object. Behind him an older boy in a gold jewelled crown, white flower garland and yellow-orange cloth stands beside a bare-chested boy with tripundra-style white and red forehead marks, rudraksha malas and a pendant, holding a wooden staff.2017-12-16July 17 20122012-07-17July 17 20122012-07-17January 28 20212021-01-28December 29 20082008-12-29A standing man on a raised stage in front of an ornate gold-leaf arch with floral and scrollwork carvings. He wears a saffron-orange draped garment with gold borders, multiple strands of rudraksha beads, a belt and armlets of rudraksha with brass bells, and a silver necklace. He holds a silver trident in his left hand and rests his right hand on his hip. Yellow tilak marks cover his forehead and a red bindi sits between his brows; his long dark hair falls past his shoulders. Below him are a tiger-striped cloth and two ornamental metal stands. Garlands and a patterned backdrop with black-and-white circular motifs appear at the edges. The appearance-based cues of long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha adornment match the Swamiji (probable) label.2012-07-17
