November 12 20152015-11-12 +1 copiesAugust 27 20172017-08-27A man seated on an ornate golden throne with lion-form armrests and leopard-print cushions, speaking into a black microphone on a stand. He wears a rust-red turban with a crescent and a small sacred emblem, a rust-red robe, pink flower garlands, and a red thread on his wrist, with a silver staff topped by a serpent-shaped finial beside him. A small framed photograph sits on a silver side table, and the golden backdrop is elaborately carved. Appearance-based a person: long-bearded ascetic cues are not clearly distinctive, so the identity remains unsure; the figure is presented as the speaker at a seated discourse.2017-09-01 +1 copiesOctober 29 20162016-10-29November 21 20152015-11-21June 15 20162016-06-15A man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion heads on either side and a tiger-striped cushion below. He wears a long rudraksha-style bead necklace with gold beads, a gold chain, bangles and a white tilak on his forehead with a red dot. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace, seated on a golden throne, a presiding teacher role. Red velvet drapes frame the background.2013-02-25A seated figure on an ornate gilded throne with lion-head armrests and carved scrollwork sits on a tiger-skin-draped seat before deep red velvet drapes. The figure wears a rust-orange turban, rust-orange robe with gold borders, a long rudraksha mala with ceremonial gold necklace, gold armbands and bangles, and long dark hair falling over the seat. A microphone on a stand is in front, and tall gold oil lamps flank the throne. The figure appears to be Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, a turban, saffron-orange clothing, rudraksha mala and gold ornaments, seated in a throne-like setting, and the page names him as present.2016-01-10 +1 copiesOctober 08 20132013-10-08A man with long swept-back hair and a red tilak sits on an ornate silver throne with leopard-print cushions, holding a silver trident in his right hand and a pink-and-white garland draped over his lap. He wears a rust-orange robe, a heavy gold necklace and rudraksha-style brown bracelets, with bare feet resting on small brass footstools. Behind him, a backdrop shows red-and-gold temple gopurams and painted elephants. Swamiji (probable) appearance cues: the swept-back hair, gold necklace, trident and orange robe are consistent with the page's description of a seated Swamiji on stage.2017-09-30A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a golden throne flanked by two golden lion heads, draped with a striped tiger-skin cloth and red tiger-striped cushions. He wears a heavy gold necklace, rudraksha malas, and a saffron shawl, holding a silver trident-topped staff beside him. Behind him, a wall of garlands in red, pink, orange and white flowers frames the stage, and a microphone stands before him. He smiles while speaking.2015-11-16April 02 20172017-04-02
