A man walks along a paved brick walkway in bright sunlight, wearing a red draped garment with gold border and a dark rudraksha mala across his chest, with orange and black sandals. His hair is tied up at the back. Behind him stands a gold-painted wooden cart or float with floral carved panels and a yellow pole. A large banner behind him advertises Satsang, Sarva Darshan, Meet the Master, Devotional worship and Pratyaksha Darshan, with photos of gatherings and a phone number. Man is walking, not seated; appearance alone does not establish identity, so role is a devotee/sannyasi in red robes.2011-09-12September 06 20112011-09-06 +1 copiesOctober 04 20112011-10-04Photograph of two men walking across a paved courtyard outside a red-walled building. The man on the right wears a red turban with a silver ornament, a red and blue silk garment draped over the body, a gold ceremonial necklace and carries a folded pink cloth in his hands; his feet are bare. Beside him on the left, a shaved-headed man in orange ochre robes and a rudraksha mala walks barefoot. Behind them stand a gold-framed ceremonial item and a striped cushion, and on the right a board advertises free morning satsang broadcasts. The red-and-blue wearer has distinctive ceremonial adornments and a garment consistent with the a person candidate, but his face is not clearly discernible at this angle; the scene shows a procession-like walk, not a seated discourse.2011-09-09October 03 20112011-10-03A man stands barefoot on an orange-tiled stage under a corrugated metal roof at night, wearing a saffron-orange shawl with fringed ends over an orange robe and dhoti. His hair is swept back, he has a red tilak mark on his forehead, and his hands are pressed together in front of his chest with eyes lowered. Behind him a red upholstered chair with gold carved frame and legs stands on the stage. A wall board carries posters and Kannada text, with potted plants and hanging green fruit nearby.2011-12-31A single figure stands on a paved outdoor stage in front of a white banner with red and maroon panels and partial printed text. He has long, dark, wavy hair and wears a red draped garment with gold border, a long rudraksha mala, a white vibhuti marking on the forehead and a red kumkum dot. His right hand is raised in a blessing-like gesture while his eyes are lowered. Beside him is a gold-trimmed cabinet or platform with floral brass fittings, and a wheel-like object sits at the lower right. Printed banner text is partly visible, including the number 92492. Whether this is the a person is not established from appearance alone.2011-09-16A seated man in a red-upholstered throne chair with a gilded back wears a green and pink wrap over bare shoulders, a long gold-bead necklace, and a red tilak on his forehead; his long dark hair is swept back, and his hands rest on an orange cloth on the armrest. Beside him sits a shaved-headed priest in orange robes with a rudraksha mala. Behind them a white banner advertises Satsang, free admission, daily 7:30-9 pm, and online broadcast, with a photo panel and a Prahyaksha-style heading. Swamiji (probable) is the man on the throne, identified by his swept-back hair, gold necklace and green wrap; the priest is seated at his side.2011-12-16A man in saffron-orange robes sits in an ornate red velvet throne with gold-trimmed armrests and legs, his palms pressed together in namaskar and his bare feet resting on a patterned rug. He wears a rudraksha mala around his neck and has long hair tied back. Behind him stands a dark statue of a deity wearing a white garment and a flower garland, beside a brass oil lamp (deepa) and brass plates with offerings.
