February 21 20202020-02-21July 17 20152015-07-17A photograph of a devotee in white dhoti and shawl prostrating with forehead touching the ground before a seated figure on a red-and-maroon velvet throne draped with orange cloth. The seated figure wears a maroon turban and saffron-maroon robe, with a long garland of yellow, white and red flowers around the neck and a red-and-yellow flower garland across the lap. The figure's hands are raised in a blessing gesture and the figure smiles. Nearby stand a brass tray with a coconut-shaped offering and flowers, and gold-coloured decor fills the background. The devotee's blue backpack is visible at the side. The seated figure's appearance matches Swamiji (probable) by the saffron-maroon clothing, turban and garlands, and is shown as a depiction. Only the devotee is a physical person in the frame.2018-12-30 +2 copiesA seated figure in a rust-orange turban and brown satin wrap sits on a red velvet seat before an ornate gold throne back, wearing layered white jasmine and red-and-green flower garlands, gold bangles and gold earrings. The figure smiles and rests one hand on the head of a man in a white shirt who bows low; the bowing man's wristwatch and a pink-and-white card are visible. In the background are green leaves, a clay pot, a green-and-gold deity murti draped in flowers, and seated devotees in white. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's turban, wrap, garlands and gold ornaments match the cues; this is a blessing scene with a devotee bowing and receiving touch on the head.2015-04-23June 19 20172017-06-19A seated figure in a red-orange turban, orange-red robe, rudraksha mala and red-and-white flower garlands sits on a red zebra-patterned cushioned throne before ornate gold carved panels and gold candlestands. A bare-chested priest in a white dhoti with gold border leans forward, offering something on a plate, while a person's head is partly visible in the foreground. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, identifiable by the turban, rudraksha mala and ceremonial garlands; the priest is attending him at a ritual offering.2015-11-10A devotee in white kurta and white trousers kneels and bows forward, placing his hands and forehead on a gold-edged red-cushioned platform decorated with garlands of yellow lemon-like fruit, white jasmine strands and red flowers. He wears a necklace of brown rudraksha beads. Behind him, a figure in saffron-orange robes sits on the platform with feet visible, and another person in grey clothing stands at the right edge. The scene suggests a respectful padapuja-style offering at a seated figure's feet.2006-07-11A photograph inside a white tented pavilion with a red carpet, showing a ritual offering. Centre, a deity murti is seated on a gold throne decorated with a multicoloured garland. In front, a bearded man in a saffron-and-gold dhoti and matching shawl and red turban stands holding a tray. A seated man in white with a white head cloth and rudraksha mala holds a tray of red apples. On the right, a person in a red turban, orange robe and rudraksha mala holds a small paper and sits beside a gold-and-red chair. A woman in a patterned pink blouse and cream saree stands at the left edge, and white-clad figures stand at the right. Ornate gold pillars and a brass canopy frame the scene.2015-01-13A photograph of a seated man on a gold-carved throne receiving ritual attention from a shirtless kneeling priest in a white dhoti with orange border. The seated man wears a maroon turban with a crescent ornament and a gold jewel, maroon robes, a gold chain, multiple rudraksha-style beads and long pink-and-white flower garlands, and smiles while holding a small object. The priest, his hands cupped, offers something to him. Behind them rises a golden throne with a trident standing to the left, and red and striped cushions lie at the base. The seated man is a probable Swamiji by appearance cues: a distinctive maroon turban, garlands and ornate ceremonial clothing, seated in an honoured position.2017-06-19Inside a decorated pavilion, a figure seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a red-orange cushioned seat wears a crimson turban, a red-orange robe and a white floral garland with pink flowers in hand; this is the Swamiji (probable) based on the turban, saffron-orange robe and garland cues, seated as recipient of honour. Before the throne, a white-clad priest with a gold-bordered dhoti bends forward holding a brass tray of fruits and flowers. A woman in an orange sari with a red border stands with palms pressed together. Another white-clad man stands at left with his back to the camera. A large screen behind shows women in pink and red saris. Floral petals lie on a striped rug.2016-12-12December 11 20112011-12-11February 14 20072007-02-14 +1 copies
