Marigold garlands hang from the canopy and a decorated pedestal sits in front.2008-12-24A festive stage event with a golden throne-like seat framed by a backdrop of colourful balloons and a garland of yellow and orange flowers. A long-haired figure in a beige and gold robe sits on the golden seat and reaches forward to receive an offering. An elderly man in white kurta bows low before them. Nearby, saffron-robed attendants stand at left, and women in white saris with orange borders stand at right holding items. A young boy in white kurta and a small child in dark clothing sit at the base of the seat.2008-12-24A stage decorated with a backdrop of multicoloured balloons in red, orange, yellow, blue and pink. A large gold ornate throne with a red cushioned seat sits at right, draped with marigold garlands and topped by a gold canopy.

The seated person wears an orange-saffron robe and a red and orange flower garland, with bare feet resting on a white cloth. A seated woman in a blue and pink patterned top and white sari kneels at the throne's base, while a man in white dhoti and shirt stands at left with hands folded, and two women in white and cream saris stand at right, one smiling. A bright red-and-white blurred backdrop and striped garland decorations frame the scene. The seated figure has long swept-back hair and saffron clothing with a garland, which fits the page-hinted Swamiji cues, so this is a probable appearance-based identification in person.2007-02-24July 17 20092009-07-17A photograph of devotees gathered around a golden ornate throne decorated with marigold and red flower garlands against a green and yellow backdrop. A long-haired man in a gold-embroidered cream garment sits on the throne, smiling broadly. An older man in white dhoti and white kurta stands before him, and several women in white and red saris, peach and orange clothing, and a red sari stand nearby, some with hands folded. Appearance is consistent with a person seated on the throne, shown with long swept-back hair and ornate gold clothing, while a devotee in white stands before him.2008-12-26A seated man on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned seat and a large gold back, framed by a rainbow-coloured floral garland arch and white-and-blue fan-like decorations under a tent. He wears a white dhoti with a gold border, a gold chain with beads, and long hair, and holds a white fly-whisk or chamara-like object in each hand. Standing before him, a man in cream kurta with folded hands offers namaskar, while a woman in a white sari with a teal blouse holds a fruit. Other women in orange, peach and cream saris and a man in cream clothes with a red-and-gold necklace stand nearby. Marigold garlands line the dais. The seated figure has distinctive long hair and ceremonial gold adornments, consistent with the page's reference to a person, but the appearance is not conclusive.2009-01-01July 17 20082008-07-17A photograph of a ceremony on a raised orange-carpeted stage in front of a gilded throne draped with red cushions and white and red flower garlands. A central seated figure in an orange-saffron robe sits cross-legged on the throne, with bare feet visible. Beside the throne, a standing man in an orange robe with curly hair leans in attentively. To the left, women in white and cream saris with gold borders stand near a young boy, and an older man in white clothes stands at the right edge. The stage backdrop is hung with flower arrangements in yellow, orange and red, and a gold-toned ornate pillar stands behind. Several people are seated in the foreground. The central figure appears to be a person, identified by the saffron robe, the long swept-back hair and the ceremonial throne setting, though the appearance is not fully certain.2009-08-02A photograph of a ceremonial stage in a hall. A man in orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with a carved crown-topped backrest, backed by an arch of red, orange and white flowers. He holds a string of rudraksha beads in one hand and smiles. Around him, a man in a white shirt and white dhoti, a younger man in orange robes holding out a garland, and several women in white and cream sarees with orange borders stand close, some reaching toward the throne. A black pedestal fan is at the right edge.2009-11-17July 16 20092009-07-16January 01 20092009-01-01
