2003 World Tour - Bay Area USAIndoor photograph of a home visit. A seated man in orange saffron robes with a gold-bordered yellow shawl and a white flower garland, with a red bindi and long dark hair, has his hand on the head of a woman bowing before him. A white-haired older woman in a yellow sari with gold bangles stands at left, palms pressed together in greeting. Behind them a glass display cabinet holds small white figurines, and a man in white clothing stands at the right edge. The seated man's appearance is consistent with the a person description, but the page does not state he is present, so this is an uncertain identification.2010-02-18February 11 20072007-02-11May 23 20112011-05-23July 10 20142014-07-10June 23 20142014-06-23 +2 copiesA photograph of a house visit in a plain white-walled room with a framed picture on the wall. A man in a saffron-orange robe with a white flower garland and red flower garland sits on a white-draped sofa, one hand raised toward a kneeling man in a light blue shirt and white dhoti who bows with palms pressed together. A woman in a maroon sari with gold border kneels on the right, holding offerings, and a young man in white with a yellow shawl stands behind. A red tray of fruit, flowers and sweets sits in front of the seated figure, and a patterned rug covers the floor. Appearance-based cues on the seated saffron-robed man, including the long hair and garland, make him a person; he is seated, not shown on a screen, and his identity is uncertain.2010-02-17A seated figure in an orange-saffron cloth with a white and yellow-red marigold garland and a tilak on the forehead has a hand raised toward a bent-over devotee's head, while another devotee in a white shirt and dark trousers leans in beside a woman in a maroon sari bowing with her hands near his feet. A bearded man in a white kurta and orange shawl stands behind them, and a woman in white looks on from the background. A low white-covered bench holds a bamboo tray of banknotes, a steel tumbler and a gold-tipped walking stick. The setting is an indoor hall with windows, a striped floor mat and a blue-framed table. The seated figure's distinctive long hair and saffron robes are visible cues, but the identity is uncertain from appearance.2006-12-10July 07 20142014-07-07 +1 copiesMarch 13 20132013-03-13Indoor photo in a warmly lit room with a long framed painting of a crowded scene above, and a mirror at right decorated with orange and green marigold garlands and a small framed portrait.

An older man in white shirt and white dhoti kneels on an orange mat, washing or anointing the seated person's bare feet from a silver plate, with a rudraksha mala around his neck and a wristwatch visible. A woman in a cream and red sari with a red bindi stands at right, hands together in reverence. Behind them are a floral arrangement with orange flowers, a fruit bowl of apples on a side table, and a brown sofa with cushions in a plain room. This appears to be a padapuja, a ritual washing of the feet.2010-02-17
