A photograph of a man standing at a stone-topped altar in a temple courtyard, wearing a red-maroon cloth wrap over his shoulders with gold trim, a long gold bead necklace of large round beads, gold bangles and an armband, and a red tilak mark on his forehead. Brass vessels, a brass kalasha-style pot, a brass lamp, a bowl of rice, folded white and purple cloths, and pink flowers sit on the altar. Behind him is an orange-red wall, a framed painting of a seated blue-skinned deity with a trident beside a white-robed figure, a small printed notice, and a carved stone pillar at left. The man is shown with a calm, attentive expression. His appearance is consistent with the page's claim, but the cues are not distinctive enough to confirm.2011-11-11 +1 copiesMarch 13 20132013-03-13November 11 20112011-11-11December 03 20112011-12-03November 11 20112011-11-11March 13 20132013-03-13A photograph of a man in a yellow saffron-toned dhoti and shawl with a red border stands at a brass worship table holding a small brass pot, a kumkum mark on his forehead and a rudraksha mala draped across his chest.

He wears an orange-red shawl over bare shoulders, pink and gold-bordered lower cloth, and multiple rudraksha malas around his neck and arm, with a red tilak on his forehead. His hands are clasped in front of him. Behind him on the orange wall hangs a framed image of a meditating deity murti with a trident-like form.
