A man with long swept-back black hair wears an orange saffron robe and a heavy ceremonial gold bead necklace, extending his right hand forward as he speaks. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ornate gold necklace are the qualifying cues. Around him, men in white dhotis with sacred thread and tilak marks stand close, one holding a small white cup. A shaved-headed man in front of them bends forward holding offerings, and a stone statue appears at the left edge.2010-11-06A long-haired figure in a saffron-orange shawl wrapped over the shoulders and multiple gold-beaded rudraksha-style necklaces stands at the centre, extending a folded white paper or prasadam to a row of men in white shirts and white dhotis with hands folded in greeting. Behind him a shaved-headed attendant in a saffron cloth and beaded necklace stands by a tray of fruit, and an older man in white with an orange shawl is visible at right. The setting is an indoor hall with a projection screen and blue drapery. The central figure matches the probable Swamiji appearance cues of swept-back long hair, saffron clothing and ceremonial beads, and is presented as the one giving prasadam to devotees.2011-02-27A satsang gathering where a long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes and a multi-strand gold bead necklace stands centre frame, holding a small paper slip toward a saffron-robed attendant who holds a silver tray with gold bangles and other items. Surrounding devotees in light and white clothing, some with palms joined, stand close together, and a child in a white shirt at lower left holds a paper. Behind them a red and yellow patterned banner hangs and a large gold-coloured decorative object is visible at right. Several people are visible, roughly 6-20.2011-02-27A photograph of a food-serving event in a yellow-walled hall. A long-haired man in orange ochre robes and a heavy gold bead necklace reaches into a large steel pot of cooked rice, with a shaved-head monk in orange robes and a rudraksha mala beside him. Behind them a young man in an orange-and-white shawl watches. In the foreground devotees and volunteers in white, one wearing a blue hairnet, crowd around the serving pots and a steel tray of prasad. Swamiji (probable): the long-haired man in orange robes, gold bead necklace and bare shoulder, serving food, matches the page's claim that Swamiji was present.2012-09-20July 07 20092009-07-07Indoor photo of a devotee offering a white tray of sweets to a seated figure in orange robes with long, curly dark hair and a gold necklace, reaching out to take the offering. Standing beside them, a man in white kurta and white dhoti wears a rudraksha mala and a wristwatch and looks down toward the exchange. Other men in orange and white clothing stand behind, and a woman in an orange shawl and gold bangles sits in the foreground, with a child in a red and blue cap at her side. Gold cloth and a flowered textile appear at the bottom edge.2008-07-17October 26 20102010-10-26
