A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with red cushions and carved lion-form armrests, wearing an orange saffron robe and a red bindi, smiling. A kneeling man in a dark striped shirt and trousers bows forward with his forehead touching the feet of the seated figure on a patterned rug strewn with red petals. Beside them a standing figure in an orange robe with a folded cloth in hand watches. A tray with small items sits to the left, a microphone stands on the right, and books are stacked on a side table beside an orange cloth. The seated figure appears to be Swamiji (probable), identified by the saffron robe, swept-back long hair and ornate gold throne setting.

A man in a white shirt kneels on a rug scattered with red petals, bowing his head onto the feet of a seated figure in orange robes on an ornate gold throne with carved lions and a red cushion. Another man in dark shirt and trousers stands with hands pressed together, and a figure in orange robes holding a folder stands behind at left. A bottle and small items sit on a wooden table beside the throne, and a microphone stands at right.2009-12-01December 01 20092009-12-01A padapuja ceremony in a yellow-draped hall with gold-carved throne. A seated figure in orange robes with a white and red flower garland and a red tilak sits on a gold throne with carved lion armrests, his bare feet resting on a silver tray. A figure in orange robes with long dark hair kneels and bends forward to honour his feet, while an older man in white sits on the floor nearby. Fruit, a bottle of water, a tray of offerings and books sit on a glass side table. The seated figure's identity is not established by appearance alone, so he is described by role as the one receiving padapuja; the photo page indicates a person was present at this event.2009-09-07August 16 20092009-08-16A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a long rudraksha mala and long swept-back hair sits smiling on an ornate orange upholstered throne-like chair, his bare feet being touched by a man in a white shirt and jeans who bends forward at the front. Behind the throne stands a second man in orange robes with a wristwatch, and a red velvet curtain forms the backdrop. A small side table holds a tray with apples, flower petals and a water bottle, and a microphone stand is at the right edge. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's long hair, saffron robes and rudraksha mala match the appearance cues, and the scene shows a devotee performing padapuja.2010-09-08November 22 20092009-11-22A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold-carved throne with a red velvet back and cushion, a microphone on a stand before him.
