A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits on an ornate golden throne with red cushions, bare feet resting on a gold footstool, in front of a red and gold patterned backdrop with brass lamps. A man in white shirt and dhoti bows low with hands near the seated figure's feet, while a priest in orange dhoti stands at left with palms joined. Several young women and girls in white and pink dresses stand around the throne, one touching the seated figure's arm and another with hands raised. The figure's appearance is a visible candidate but identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the presence is uncertain.2009-08-22A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits on a gold-framed throne against a red and gold patterned wall with hanging brass lamps. Around the throne, several people stand: a man in a turquoise kurta holds a hand toward the seated figure, a woman in a khaki sari and another in white with a red border attend nearby, and two young men in white dhotis, one with a red shawl, stand at the left. A woman in a red-bordered sari stands at the right beside gold curtains. Hanging brass lamps flank the throne, and a small child is visible at the lower right.2009-08-22A ceremonial stage inside a hall with hanging beaded strands and a grey draped backdrop. A long-haired figure in orange and saffron clothing with rudraksha beads sits on an ornate gold throne, one hand raised in blessing. Before the throne, an orange cloth-covered platform holds the attention. A bald man in white dhoti and an orange shawl stands at left, while a man in white shirt and dhoti stands nearby. A child in white shirt and shorts raises a hand toward the seated figure. A woman in a green sari bends forward in devotion at the platform's edge, and two women in white saris stand at right. Tall brass lamps with bird-shaped tops flank the throne. The seated figure matches Swamiji (probable) through the swept-back long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, seated in the role of the central figure receiving devotees.2011-02-27December 05 20092009-12-05August 25 20092009-08-25A stage darshan at an indoor hall.

Two women stand to the right: one in a white sari with gold border, another in white with an orange shawl. A woman in an orange garment stands at the left edge. A white-draped table holds fruit and offerings. Hanging marigold garlands and small lamps decorate the backdrop, and a gold-bordered tapestry frames the stage.

The central figure wears an orange-saffron robe, an orange turban, and a rudraksha mala, and makes a raised blessing gesture. Around the throne, several people in white dhotis and white saris stand or kneel; one kneeling man in white attends the throne base, and a woman in a red-bordered sari kneels at the front. Gold ceremonial fans and staffs stand on either side, with a temple-arch backdrop and a red carpet beneath. Swamiji (probable): the orange turban, saffron robe and rudraksha mala are the distinguishing cues on the seated central figure, shown in a throne-and-darshan setting.2010-11-05December 08 20092009-12-08A photograph of a ceremonial hall where a seated figure in saffron-orange robes, with a rudraksha-style necklace and a large floral garland, sits on an ornate golden throne beneath a golden canopy.

Wall decorations include a painted temple backdrop and dark drapery.2010-11-05July 12 20092009-07-12August 27 20082008-08-27September 13 20092009-09-13 +2 copies
