December 17 20132013-12-17Seated figure at the centre on a low golden-framed throne beneath a tiered red and orange canopy with fringed tassels, flanked by silver tridents, axes and staffs and red-and-gold ornamental banners. The seated figure wears a saffron-orange robe, a multi-strand bead necklace and has a shaved head. Around him, men in white ritual clothes with orange and red shawls hold the staffs, and a woman in a red-and-gold shawl holds an offering of fruit. Seated devotees in white, red, orange and grey clothing face the central figure in a satsang or darshan gathering inside a stone-walled temple hall. The seated figure matches the appearance cues of a person, with saffron robes and ornate bead necklaces, so the seated figure is recorded as a probable candidate in person.2013-12-17A smiling man with short dark hair and a red bindi sits on a gold-framed throne beneath an orange fringed canopy, wearing a red-orange robe, gold beaded necklaces and a rudraksha-style bead strand, one hand raised in greeting. Attendants flank him: a man in white with a red shawl holds a long beaded staff near the throne, a woman in white with a red shawl holds a silver trident-topped staff, and another attendant on the right holds a silver staff. Seated in front, a woman in a striped shawl holds a pink object and a man in a striped shirt sits at right, with a woman in glasses and a grey shawl in the foreground. Stone walls and a bare-chested attendant in red are at the left edge. The scene suggests a seated darshan audience with ceremonial staffs and a canopied throne.2013-12-17December 17 20132013-12-17A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold-covered throne beneath an orange fringed parasol, smiling, with a red bindi, a long gold-beaded necklace and an ornamental pendant on his chest. He appears to match the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ceremonial gold necklace, and is seated before a crowd. Around him stand attendants holding long silver ceremonial staffs with trident and axe-like finials; one man in white with a red shawl holds a mala-like staff. A woman in a striped red-and-orange shawl holds a pink packet and green fruit, and an older woman in a grey shawl and a man in a striped blue shirt sit in front. Men and women in red and white shawls stand behind, with a stone temple wall in the background.2013-12-17May 16 20152015-05-16A seated figure in a red-maroon robe and beaded orange-brown mala sits cross-legged on a leopard-print cushion before a golden carved throne back, centred between silver tridents and spears.

He wears a rust-red robe, a multi-strand gold necklace, a red-pink-and-yellow flower garland, a dark turban-style head covering, and vibhuti marks on his forehead. Several people in white and off-white clothes sit with their backs to the camera on the floor in front of the throne, facing him. Two visible people in front are seen from behind, one in a green blouse and white sari, another in white. The setting is a formal satsang or discourse hall with a textured grey backdrop. A person in dark red-brown robes with a long-standing ceremonial presentation is seated on the throne; appearance cues include the gold necklaces, rudraksha-style ornaments and dark turban, consistent with the page's Swamiji label, though the face is not clearly distinguishable.2016-05-20October 19 20152015-10-19
