A seated man with a shaved head and a red tilak on his forehead sits with palms pressed together in namaste on an ornate gold throne. He wears an orange-saffron robe and a heavy layered necklace of gold and beads, plus rudraksha-style strands. Behind him hang red, blue and purple draped fabrics under a golden umbrella canopy. Ceremonial tridents and a decorated axe stand beside the throne, and gold lion-like carvings flank it. The figure fits an appearance-based a person candidate, but the cues are limited, so identity stays uncertain. The setting resembles a stage or satsang dais with a deity-style ceremonial arrangement.2013-02-08A man seated on an ornate gold throne with a gold canopy umbrella above, palms pressed together in namaste. He wears a pale pink shawl over his shoulders, an orange-saffron dhoti, a multi-strand gold and beaded necklace, a rudraksha mala and gold bracelets, with a red tilak on his forehead and long dark hair swept back. Silver trishula staves and an axe-like ceremonial weapon stand beside the throne, with gold lion figures at the base. Behind him hang red and orange drapes and blue swags. The appearance matches the Swamiji (probable) cues of long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha and gold ornaments, and the page is a Nithyananda event.2013-02-09A seated man sits on an ornate gold throne with a large gold parasol above him, set under draped orange, red and blue fabric in a ceremonial stage tent. He wears a pale pink shawl over his shoulders, an orange-saffron dhoti, layered gold necklaces with a rudraksha-style bead mala, and gold bangles, with a tilak on his forehead and long dark hair. Flanking the throne are tall silver trishula tridents and a pair of gold lion-shaped armrests. Probable Swamiji seated in a ceremonial role; the visible cues are long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and gold ornaments. Watermarked photo of a throne-side ceremonial setting.2013-02-09A seated man in an orange-saffron robe and a yellow cloth draped over his lap sits cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne with red velvet cushions and a leopard-skin rug. He wears a long multi-strand gold-and-white flower garland and has a bold white-and-red forehead mark, with palms pressed together in namaste. Two large painted and gilded attendant figures with crowns, gold jewellery and raised hands flank the throne, and golden lion heads sit at the armrests. The background has a yellow panelled wall and a stage-like setting. The palms-together posture and the throne setting suggest a satsang or discourse on a dais.2014-07-11February 08 20132013-02-08February 10 20122012-02-10A seated figure in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gilded throne with a golden canopy umbrella and carved lion-like arms against a dark navy curtain backdrop. The person holds palms pressed together in namaste, wearing a white and orange flower garland, an orange beaded mala and a red tassel. Flower vases with orange and yellow blooms flank the throne, and a microphone stand stands at the right on a patterned red-and-cream carpet.2009-12-23A seated figure in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a red velvet-covered golden throne in a decorated hall. The figure wears a long rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace, gold bangles and arm bands, and holds hands together in a meditative mudra at chest level. Behind the throne are gold-embroidered panels, a garland of red and pink flowers, and hanging strands of white beads. Loose flower petals lie on the red velvet at the front edge. The face is cropped out of frame. Appearance-based cues including the rudraksha mala, saffron clothing and ornate throne are consistent with a person candidate. Only one person is visible.2011-10-27A seated figure on an ornate golden throne with a golden canopy and umbrella, on a raised orange-carpeted stage. The seated person wears an orange robe with a rudraksha mala and has hands pressed together in greeting. A microphone stand is in front of the throne, with brass oil lamps on either side and a stage backdrop printed with a temple pillar scene. A dark blue curtain hangs at left. Appearance-based cues are a shaved-headed monastic in saffron with a mala, but the face and hair are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so this is an uncertain candidate.2011-01-29A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate golden throne with red cushions and gold lion-head armrests, hands pressed together in namaste with eyes closed. He wears a white and red flower garland, a gold necklace and a gold crown-like headpiece. Gold and red tiered decorations frame the throne under a pink tent canopy, with a gold parasol above and a trident-topped staff on the left. Flower garlands drape the throne, and a man in orange stands at lower left with a few other people's heads visible at the bottom edge.2008-01-01February 25 20132013-02-25 +1 copiesJanuary 11 20082008-01-11
