December 12 20162016-12-12A photograph of a satsang-style gathering in a hall with a red curtain backdrop. In the foreground, a young man in a white kurta with a rudraksha mala and a forehead tilak raises a grey stone block in his right hand, looking forward intently. Beside him, another man raises a stone or brick overhead. Around them, seated participants in saffron and white clothing, some wearing rudraksha malas, fill the frame, with a yellow-clad person at right. No speaker is clearly visible in the frame, and the page's excerpt concerns the Sadashivoham 2016 program with a reference to a person, but no one in this image is confirmed as him.2016-12-21January 06 20192019-01-06A photo of a satsang-style exchange. On the left, a man with long hair tied in a bun, wearing a tiger-striped saffron-and-black garment and a long rudraksha mala, extends his right arm and hand toward a man's forehead; he has a yellow mark on his forehead. On the right, a man in a white kurta with a blue lanyard and an ID badge raises both hands toward the first man. Behind them, a woman in white and a figure in red sit before a textured, cream-coloured wall. The left man has distinctive long hair, rudraksha beads and saffron-patterned clothing, so this is a person in person giving a blessing, but appearance alone is not conclusive.2012-01-09A photograph of a ceremony in which a bearded young man in a white kurta, with a red lanyard, raises his right hand while a bare-chested man in a red-orange cloth with gold edging and a long rudraksha mala holds a sheet of paper and reads from it.

Behind them, a cameraman films and other people in white clothing stand and watch, with a seated person in orange near the bottom edge.2011-09-04 +1 copiesSeptember 10 20122012-09-10A photograph of a bare-chested man with swept-back hair wearing a red and gold shawl, a gold bead necklace, and a white tilak on his forehead, handing a small red object to a man in a white checked shirt.
