His eyes are closed, his right hand is raised palm-outward in a blessing gesture, and his left hand rests on the armrest. He has long dark hair and a red bindi on his forehead.

No other people are visible.2009-12-17A smiling man seated on an ornate gold throne with a carved arched back and a deep red velvet cushion raises both hands, palms facing outward, in a gesture of blessing.

He wears saffron-orange robes draped over one shoulder, a long rudraksha mala around his neck, and a red bindi with a white tilak on his forehead. His long dark hair falls past his shoulders. His hands rest together over a gold scepter-like ceremonial rod, and a microphone on a flexible stand is at right. Behind the throne are pink drapes and a garland of yellow flowers at upper left. Appearance-based label: a person, seated on a throne in saffron robes with rudraksha and tilak.2009-12-20A photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate golden throne with carved gold-leaf backrest and lion-headed armrests. He wears a loose saffron-orange robe draped over his shoulders and a small red bindi on his forehead, holding a black handheld microphone in one raised hand while the other hand gestures in mid-speech. Dark curtains form the backdrop. The scene suggests a seated discourse or satsang. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back dark hair, saffron robes and a bindi, and the page refers to Swamiji at this event, though the face is not used for identification.2009-12-17PhotoAlbum +1 copiesOctober 20 20102010-10-20
