A smiling long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes with a saffron shawl and a long rudraksha mala sits on a red velvet throne with one bare foot visible, gesturing with one hand. Across from them, a white-haired man in a white t-shirt and orange lanyard stands with palms pressed together in namaste.

He wears a rudraksha mala with large beads, a white vertical tilak on his forehead, and extends his hand to a kneeling devotee in a white shirt who holds a small paper and a yellow object. Behind them a woman in white with a rudraksha mala and orange-red garland stands holding a green cloth. The man is an appearance-based a person candidate, with a red-robed, rudraksha-adorned presentation consistent with the page, though his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.2014-06-02A photograph of a ceremonial moment in front of an ornate gold throne decorated with garlands of marigolds, roses and white flowers. A seated figure with long dark swept-back hair wears an orange saffron robe, a multi-strand flower garland and a gold-coloured necklace. The seated figure is an appearance-based Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne and receiving an offering; the appearance cues are long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and the garland. Standing to the left, a shaved-headed man in orange robes with a matching orange head wrap and glasses stands beside a figure in a white kurta, who bends forward with palms together to receive a small offering. Gold lion-shaped figures flank the throne base and a decorative banner with a bird emblem is visible at the top left.2009-12-24October 08 20082008-10-08A seated man with long dark hair tied back, wearing a yellow-and-black tiger-striped cloth and a long white flower-bead necklace, smiles broadly while resting his hand on a golden seat with a brown rudraksha-style mala at his waist. A man in a white shirt with an orange cord bends forward toward him, and a bald-headed man with a white tilak on his forehead and white cloth sits at right. Behind them are a white fan, maroon curtains and a golden draped backdrop. Swamiji (probable) is identified by the long swept-back hair, ornate yellow garment and white flower-bead necklace, seated in a position of honour.2013-05-16A photograph of an indoor ceremonial setting with a red draped backdrop and a gold-carved seat.
