Outdoor photo on a rocky hillside among trees. A smiling man with long dark hair, a red bindi and a dark rudraksha mala sits on a stone pile, wearing a sleeveless orange robe with gold borders and black-and-orange sandals. Beside him at left, a woman in white with an orange shawl stands, and a seated figure in white with an orange shawl sits behind. At right, a young woman in white with an orange shawl and glasses smiles. A person in white and orange sits further left. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, orange robe with gold borders and a rudraksha mala, seated among devotees.2008-08-03April 01 20082008-04-01A man with long dark hair and a red bindi stands outdoors on grassy ground in front of a green hillside with palm trees. He wears a saffron-orange draped garment over one shoulder, a long rudraksha mala with a silver pendant, and holds a tall white spear-like staff in his right hand while laughing with his left hand on his chest. The appearance and ornate rudraksha mala with long hair and saffron clothing match the Swamiji (probable) candidate profile, so this physically present figure is noted as a probable Swamiji. The setting is a rural hillside with trees, consistent with the land of a Tiruvannamalai site.2008-04-01A long-haired man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged outdoors on an orange cushioned seat beneath an orange and green canopy, with palm trees behind. A gold chain hangs at his neck. A cream towel rests over his lap while a woman in a white top with a dark mala beads around her neck attends to his bare foot. Behind him, an older woman with a red bindi and a younger woman with a white cloth over her shoulder look on, and a bald man with a white tilak stands nearby.
