A photograph in a bright indoor hall with a tiled ceiling. A bare-shouldered figure with long swept-back hair, wearing an orange and maroon wrap, a white flower garland and rudraksha-style beads, stands centred while a woman in a red sari with gold border places a garland on his neck; the figure is smiling. Behind them women in saris and a man in white shirt watch; a young child in the lower right and several older men in white stand nearby. A devotee with palms pressed together stands at left. Glass display cabinets and a red banner appear in the background. Swamiji (probable) is the figure receiving the garland, identified by long swept-back hair, orange-maroon wrap and rudraksha beads.2013-09-15Indoor photo of a devotee in an orange-brown dhoti and wrap, wearing a thick garland of red, white and yellow flowers and gold bangles, placing a hand on the head of a young boy in a white t-shirt. Nearby, a woman in a white sari with gold border holds a small book and stands beside a girl in a purple top, while a man in a white dhoti with gold border stands behind them. A shaved-headed man in orange and a man in white shirt stand at the edge. Red curtains, white walls and an air conditioner form the backdrop. Visible people: about seven, not a crowd.2013-07-20May 31 20122012-05-31May 25 20122012-05-25 +1 copiesMay 14 20122012-05-14 +1 copiesA photograph inside a hall with a corrugated metal roof and tall pillars wrapped in colourful fabric.

Several people with folded hands stand nearby, including a man in a white shirt on the left and a woman in orange and maroon robes beside the central figure.

Behind them, a row of people in white and orange robes stands along a central aisle leading toward a distant golden seat.
