November 11 20102010-11-11A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate golden throne with lion-shaped armrests and a tiger-striped cloth, under a gold canopy inside a tent. The central figure wears a red robe, a long multicolour flower garland and gold necklaces, with a red tilak on the forehead and hair swept back. Two crossed silver tridents flank the throne. Standing and kneeling around are devotees: a man in white with clasped hands at left, a man in an orange dhoti and rudraksha mala beside the throne, a woman in a white sari with a red-and-white shawl at right, and a woman in red beside her. Rose petals lie on a red cushioned platform at the foot of the throne, where a priest in white with a red shawl kneels at left. The scene reads as a pratyaksha padapuja on a throne, with the seated figure described only by role.2016-05-20A man with long, swept-back black hair and a small red tilak on his forehead sits on a red upholstered throne with gold-trimmed carved edges. He wears a leopard-print shawl over orange clothing and a heavy gold ceremonial necklace of bead-like pendants. Behind him, several attendants stand in white clothes with orange sashes, and one holds a tall gold-topped staff. A woman on the right wears a cream sari with a dark border and a silver bangle, her hands clasped near her chin. The setting appears to be an indoor hall. Swamiji (probable) is seated centrally as the figure of honour, shown by the long hair, orange garment and gold necklace.2010-11-11Night outdoor photo of a seated figure on an ornate gold-framed throne with a crimson upholstered seat and back, leopard-print mat at its base. The seated person wears saffron-orange robes with gold border, a long dark-haired style, and layered beaded necklaces; the figure is a probable Swamiji by visible cues of swept-back long hair, saffron clothing and ornate necklaces. Standing beside the throne are attendants in orange and white: a man in orange holding a staff at left, another in orange with a red-and-gold trim, and a bald man in white with an orange scarf. Behind are people holding a golden parasol and a ceremonial staff, string lights glow above, and an older man in cream kurta and red dhoti stands at right, with other men in white dhotis.2010-11-21November 29 20112011-11-29Photo of a ceremonial darshan on a raised gold-framed throne draped with white and pink flower garlands, set before a large orange-toned backdrop of tree roots. A central figure seated on the throne wears an orange robe and a long white garland with red and green flowers. Devotees in white and cream clothes, one in a green shawl and one in an orange sari, approach and reach toward him, some with hands folded. A young girl in a white top and orange skirt kneels at the throne's edge. A man in a white shirt and a man in camouflage trousers stand nearby, and a seated woman wears an orange sari at left. Two cooling units stand at the sides and a camera is visible at the bottom. Seated figure identity is not established from appearance; the seated figure is recorded as a candidate only.2009-08-08November 12 20102010-11-12November 29 20112011-11-29September 05 20152015-09-05December 29 20142014-12-29A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, wearing a red and white flower garland and rudraksha-style beaded necklaces. Around the throne, men in white dhotis and shirts stand with red-and-gold shawls, a boy in white shirt stands at left, and women in cream and lavender saris stand at right beside a golden trident on a pole. The backdrop is a glowing red stage with gold and bronze discs. The throne setting suggests a formal satsang or discourse, with the bright red carpet and white-robed attendants present.2015-09-06May 31 20182018-05-31
