A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate golden throne with a red cushioned seat, draped with white and orange garlands and surrounded by marigold and multicoloured floral decorations on red stone steps. A rudraksha mala hangs at his chest and he wears a white and orange flower garland. Beside him stands a saffron-clad attendant holding a golden trident, and a golden staff is visible on the right. Behind the throne, a man in a blue shirt stands on the steps with rows of stone lamp stands and a few seated onlookers in white are nearby. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long dark hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha malas, presented as the honoured figure on the throne.

He wears white and red flower garlands over a rudraksha mala and smiles while raising one hand in blessing. Two attendants in orange sit nearby, one holding a long trident staff, and a striped umbrella shades the platform. Behind, many devotees in white and yellow dhotis and saris stand on red steps and in the water, some with hands folded and drummers at the upper right. The scene is a holy dip at Vaidya Sarovar. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long dark hair, saffron robes, rudraksha malas and a flower garland, so the appearance-based label applies, with the same role described as a seated blessing figure on the throne.2010-01-02 +1 copiesJanuary 02 20102010-01-02 +1 copiesA large crowd gathers in water at a tiered red stone ghat during a holy dip. At the centre, a seated man on an ornate golden throne wears an orange garment, a white flower garland and a red-beaded rudraksha mala, with his hands resting on his lap. The throne is heavily decorated with marigolds, roses, palm fronds and garlands in orange, yellow and purple. Two golden trident-topped staffs flank the platform. Men in orange robes and white dhotis stand on the platform and hold up a conch shell and brass vessels. Behind, people in white and saffron clothes stand or sit on the steps, and a man in an orange shirt sits on the upper steps. The scene is an in-person ritual procession in water, not a printed image. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long dark hair, orange clothing and rudraksha mala, and the page identifies him as present.2010-01-02 +1 copiesJuly 08 20092009-07-08A decorated ceremonial palanquin-style seat overflows with garlands of orange, white, yellow and purple flowers, with green fronds at its corners.
