Behind him, two standing figures in orange and saffron drapes stand on a red carpet. At lower right, an elderly man in a white shirt with white hair kneels before the seated figure, extending his hands in reverence, while a woman in dark clothing sits in the background. A gold-and-blue fabric backdrop and gold ornamental details frame the scene.2014-11-08March 13 20142014-03-13Indoor photo of a white-bearded elder in a saffron-orange robe walking through a room with a wooden floor, holding a long twisted walking staff in his right hand. Two attendants in rust-brown and gold-bordered robes with rudraksha malas walk beside him: one on the left smiling with a shaved head, and one on the right with a long beaded necklace. Behind them are carved wooden doors with red and green medallions, and a lit lamp glows in the background. Four physical people are visible. a person: the elder's long white beard, saffron clothing and walking staff match the appearance-based cues, and the page names a person at this event.2013-11-05October 23 20132013-10-23A group of saffron-robed monastics gathers in a plain room with cream walls. In the centre-left, a smiling man sits bare-shouldered in orange cloth with a red-and-gold headband, layered rudraksha and bead malas, a gold necklace and a red bindi, with a bangle-like bead band on his upper arm. Beside him, an elderly bald man with white ash markings sits bare-chested, wearing a large bead mala and a gold ornament, his arm resting on his knee. Standing monks behind them wear orange robes and gold and rudraksha necklaces, and a monk at the left edge holds a hand near the seated man's arm. The scene resembles a satsang or ritual gathering.2012-05-18February 08 20132013-02-08A photograph of a satsang gathering indoors. An older man on the left wears an orange robe, a black and white beaded rudraksha-style mala, and white tripundra marks on his forehead, seated in an orange upholstered chair and speaking into a small headset microphone. Beside him sits a woman with hair pulled back, gold earrings, white forehead marks and a brown-orange shawl with a long brown beaded necklace, smiling. Behind them stands a brass lamp and a red-clothed attendant, with a carved wooden screen. a person appears as the seated man in orange, identified by his orange robe, rudraksha mala and white forehead marks while speaking in the satsang.2013-10-23A photograph inside an orange-lit tent at a camp setting. On the right, a smiling man with swept-back long dark hair, a red bindi, white tilak on the forehead, gold hoop earring, gold necklace, large rudraksha mala and orange-saffron robe with a gold-edged cloth, wearing a copper bracelet, appears to be the figure the page identifies as Swamiji; the appearance cues (long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace, rudraksha mala, saffron robe) are distinctive, so this is a probable match. Beside him, an elderly bearded sadhu in orange robes and an orange turban gestures with his hands while seated. On the left edge, a partially visible smiling young man in the foreground faces them, wearing a rudraksha mala.2013-02-15May 08 20122012-05-08A photograph of a seated group of sadhus in saffron and orange robes. A bald man on the right, with orange tilak on his forehead and a rudraksha mala, raises one hand while speaking. Beside him a woman in a red turban and red-and-gold saffron wrap wears a heavy gold bead necklace and smiles broadly. A bearded sadhu with orange tilak sits at the far left, another white-haired sadhu sits behind, and a partially visible man with curly grey hair is at the lower left. The wall behind is pale marble with horizontal lines, and a red floral cushion is visible. No printed captions are legible in the frame. Visible cues for a candidate include a crown-less turban and ornate gold beads on a red-clad figure; the appearance is not conclusive, so the identity is uncertain.2015-09-11April 04 20132013-04-04
