A seated man with long dark locks and a white forehead marking wears a deep maroon robe and layered gold necklaces and bangles. He holds a tall silver staff with a round finial and smiles while facing a woman in white who holds folded orange cloth. Behind them stand white-clad men and a woman in a white sari, beside a pink sequined cloth draped on a pillar and a grey cooler. A gilded throne with carved gold decor is at right, under red drapery.2016-05-21 +1 copiesA photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes with a swept-back hairstyle, a tilak on his forehead, a gold-and-beaded necklace, and rudraksha-style beads, sitting on an ornate gold throne. He smiles while holding the hand of an older woman in a white sari who kneels before him and holds a red cloth. Silver trident staffs and a floral garland stand near the throne, and a bald man in orange stands behind. The background is draped in red and orange fabric. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has several qualifying cues (swept-back hair, saffron robes, ornate gold necklace, rudraksha beads) and sits on a throne, so the appearance-based label applies.2013-02-08A seated man in a maroon robe with gold necklaces, gold bangles and a black braided hairstyle sits on a red-cushioned gold throne, holding a long silver staff and extending his hand in blessing toward a shaved-headed devotee in a white dhoti and sleeveless white garment who holds a stack of folded orange cloths. Another shaved-headed man in white with a red-orange sash stands at left, a third person in white kneels behind, and a pink draped cloth and a pedestal fan stand against a dark red curtain. The seated figure matches a person's appearance, but the identification is uncertain. Brass lamp-style ornaments and gold temple decor appear at right.2016-05-21A photo from a ceremony on a red-carpeted stage with red curtains and stage lights. A man with long dark dreadlocks, a white tilak on his forehead, a red-maroon shawl, rudraksha-style beads and gold bangles and ornate gold necklaces extends his right arm toward a kneeling elderly priest in white dhoti and bare chest with a rudraksha mala who bows his head toward a golden lion-head armrest. A standing man with clasped hands in white dhoti and red-orange shawl stands at left, and a woman in white sari with red border and a long mala holds a red-and-gold object behind them. A gold-embossed backdrop and a silver kalasha-like vessel appear at the edges. Possible a person candidate: the seated man with long swept-back hair, ornate gold jewellery and red shawl is a probable match on appearance cues, uncertain given the page says no.2016-05-21May 21 20162016-05-21December 31 20152015-12-31A seated man with long dreadlocked hair, wearing a rust-red cloth, heavy gold necklaces and gold armlets, sits on a red cushioned throne in front of a wall of yellow marigold garlands and green leaves, smiling as he reaches out his hand. A man in a white shirt with an orange-and-red shawl holds out an offering tray of flowers and a bowl toward him, while several women in saris and devotees stand nearby. A white floor fan, an air-conditioner grill and a gold deity figure are visible in the background.2016-07-19December 31 20152015-12-31July 19 20162016-07-19August 22 20172017-08-22August 16 20142014-08-16A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions and a tiger-striped throne cover, with a golden lion-shaped armrest beside him. The seated man wears a rust-red robe with a gold-bordered drape, a red-brown rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders, a gold necklace, and white sacred ash markings on his forehead, and he smiles as he gestures with one hand. Facing him from the left, a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with a gold border and red waist cloth kneels or bends forward with ash markings and a rudraksha mala, in an apparent respectful gesture. A silver staff and a microphone stand are visible, with red curtains behind.2016-05-21
