Outdoor photo beside a white-washed compound wall with green creeper foliage. A dark stone deity murti stands on a low pedestal, its arms raised and holding objects. Four men attend it: two hold orange umbrellas over the scene, one in a red sleeveless top and orange dhoti, another in orange dhoti and shawl with a watch, and a man in a white shirt and white dhoti with glasses stands bowing before the murti. A fourth attendant in white, with a shaved-looking head, holds a grey umbrella. Orange marigolds lie at the base. Four people are visible, none clearly identifiable as a person from appearance; the bowing man in white is not a probable candidate.2008-10-24January 14 20102010-01-14August 08 20092009-08-08January 14 20102010-01-14A procession on a dirt path outside a whitewashed building. A black stone Nandi bull statue with garlands sits on a white pedestal at left, and saffron flags are displayed. Several men in white dhotis and white or orange shirts carry colourful decorated parasols and a small figure, possibly a murti, adorned with flower garlands. In the centre, a barefoot man wears an orange robe and draped orange shawl, and carries a small orange-clad figure with flowers, appearing to lead the procession. Palm trees and a sign on the building are visible behind them.2008-08-07June 22 20082008-06-22December 07 20072007-12-07Outdoor photo on a dusty ground at an ashram site. A man with long swept-back hair sits cross-legged in orange robes on a concrete ledge, holding his chin, while an orange umbrella is held over him. Around him stand several men in white kurta-style clothes with rudraksha or beaded necklaces, and one man in an orange sannyasi robe with a rudraksha mala. A silver car and white structure are in the background.2008-06-22Outdoor scene beside palm trees at a temple-style garden. A man in orange robes holds a bright orange umbrella over a second man in orange robes with a rudraksha mala and orange shawl, who stands with his head bowed and a folded paper in hand beside a dark stone pedestal and a carved stone deity murti. A man in white dhoti and yellow shawl holds a book, and another man in white with a yellow shawl stands with arms folded at right. The orange-robed figure's appearance is uncertain, so no identity is asserted.2010-01-14Outdoor photo on a dirt ground at a temple-like site with a row of stone deity statues and a white pillar behind. A figure in an orange robe with long dark hair walks beneath a bright orange umbrella held over them, with a rudraksha-style garland, surrounded by saffron-robed men and a woman in a maroon sari with gold border, accompanied by people in white dhotis and shirts. Several others in white and saffron stand around the group and watch. The figure wearing the orange robe and long hair and umbrella matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues, shown in person among devotees and attendants.2011-11-10Outdoor photo of a temple visit at a stone-walled site under bright sun.
