A photograph of an outdoor street arrival at a devotee home. A man in a saffron-orange robe, with long swept-back hair, wears a long garland of white jasmine, purple and red flowers and a gold-bead necklace, and smiles while a woman in a white sari with jasmine in her hair performs a welcome, holding a brass plate with a coconut, flowers and a kalasha-style vessel. Two children are visible at the lower left, and a grey minivan is parked behind them beside a large banner showing a smiling man in orange. The arrival is a probable Swamiji (probable) appearance, based on the long swept-back hair, saffron robe, ornate gold necklace and garland, and he is greeted in person as an honoured guest.2010-01-19June 23 20142014-06-23 +1 copiesAugust 17 20142014-08-17A photo at a covered building entrance beside a silver minivan with its side door open. A long-haired man in saffron-orange robes and a white flower garland stands at the car door, smiling with eyes closed. An older man in white clothes bends forward to touch his shoulder in greeting, while a woman in the lower right holds a brass plate with a fruit and leaves. Several men in white shirts and trousers stand to the left, one with an orange lanyard, and a bystander is visible inside the car. The scene looks like a formal welcome on arrival. The saffron-robed man with long swept-back hair and a garland matches the candidate cues, so this is an appearance-based candidate present in person.2009-08-13July 12 20112011-07-12A man in orange saffron robes stands beside an open grey car door on a dusty street, smiling as a devotee in a white shirt and white dhoti drapes a long white flower garland around his neck.
