Beside him a tiered silver-coloured vessel stands on the table, next to a large golden lingam with a pedestal and a tray of foil-wrapped offerings.

A gilded ornamental pot and a copper-coloured pyramidal stand sit on a wooden tray in the foreground, with a dark rudraksha-style mala hanging near the base. The setting is a white tent hung with red and orange garlands, a banana plant behind, and a bright light panel on the right. The orange clothing, long hair and gold necklace match the page's Swamiji candidate, so this is a probable match by appearance, shown in person.2006-02-26A seated man in saffron-orange robes with long swept-back hair and a heavy gold necklace sits with eyes closed beside a large gold-coloured Shiva lingam on a round yoni-peetha base. Beside him a tiered gold-coloured sri meru-style vessel stands on a wooden table. Silver foil lines the base, and a microphone stand and studio lights appear at the upper left against a white backdrop, with a timestamp reading 26 10:39PM in the corner. This appears to be a Maha Shivaratri abhishekam-style ritual setting. The figure is a probable Swamiji candidate by appearance cues (long hair, saffron clothing, gold necklace), so the identity is appearance-based only.2006-02-26A photograph of a long-haired man in saffron-orange robes pouring liquid from a glass vessel onto a white Shivalinga on a golden yoni-peetha base during an abhishekam.
