September 15 20152015-09-15Two saffron-robed sannyasis sit side by side on an ornate red tufted sofa with gilded carved wooden arms and rhinestone buttons, in front of a deep maroon velvet drape. Both wear saffron-orange head coverings with a red tilak on the forehead. The man on the left, with a short grey beard and no glasses, sits with hands resting in his lap and gazes sideways. The man on the right wears rimless glasses, has a grey beard, and holds his hands clasped while looking toward his companion. A partially visible person in a blue checked shirt stands at the far left edge. Their saffron robes are draped over their shoulders. Nothing in the frame clearly establishes which of these men, if either, is the a person named in the page.2015-09-15 +1 copiesA photograph of sadhus seated on a floor during a feast at a camp, many wearing saffron and orange robes and orange turbans. In the foreground four men sit together: a bald man in orange on the left, a younger man with glasses and a gold necklace and rudraksha mala in a maroon and gold robe, a bearded elder in an orange turban wearing a rudraksha mala and a visible ID badge, and an elderly bald man in glasses in orange cloth. Steel plates and glasses sit in front of them, and low wooden tables with more seated orange-clad people are behind. The floor is covered in green matting.2016-05-05Indoor scene in a wood-panelled room with a framed sepia photograph on the left wall. A man in an orange-saffron turban and orange robe, with a black rudraksha mala, smiles and receives a small silver kalasha or vessel with flower garlands from a bald, saffron-robed monk who faces him.

A seated elderly man in orange robes, an orange turban, an orange shawl with a red and gold woven border and a garland of marigolds and rudraksha beads receives a small white card or booklet from a standing younger man in an orange turban and saffron wrap, with long dark hair, who bends forward to hand it over. A carved wooden armchair, a low table with a fruit basket of oranges and apples and a white floral arrangement sit in front of them.2006-12-18May 04 20162016-05-04Photograph of an indoor ritual gathering with an orange-robed figure on the right wearing an orange turban, a long beaded rudraksha-style mala and a bare shoulder, smiling as he receives a gift wrapped in cellophane and orange cloth from a bearded man in an orange-yellow shawl on the left. Behind them an elderly bearded man in orange robes and garland stands, another man in maroon robes with gold garland folds his hands, and a man in pink turban watches at the edge. A tray of apples and boxes sits on a leopard-print seat; gold-framed decorations and a wall painting are in the background. The right-hand figure has distinctive long swept hair, orange turban and rudraksha cues, consistent with the a person appearance label; he is physically present.2016-05-04 +1 copiesMay 04 20162016-05-04May 20 20162016-05-20March 18 20172017-03-18Photo of a seated group of orange-robed sannyasis at a microphone on a stage with gold-framed red throne-like chairs behind them.
