April 14 20122012-04-14A seated man in a multicoloured pink, orange and green turban, with a red bindi on his forehead, sits cross-legged on a red cushioned seat within an ornate gold throne. He wears a saffron-orange silk garment with gold border and a long gold bead necklace, with his hands resting in a mudra on his lap. Yellow and red flower garlands and gold lion-head armrests frame the throne, and bare feet are visible. Appearance-based cues of a turban, saffron clothing, ornate gold ornaments and long hair match the Swamiji (probable) candidate seated in a throne, so this is a single in-person candidate.2010-10-12A man seated on an ornate gold throne decorated with yellow marigold and red rose garlands and green leaves. He wears a multicoloured orange, pink, green and yellow turban with a red bindi, an orange silk robe with gold border, and a long gold bead necklace. His long dark hair falls past his shoulders. He smiles and raises one hand in blessing while the other rests open on his lap. The background is orange.2010-10-12January 08 20122012-01-08A seated man on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, against a backdrop of marigold and rose garlands. He wears an orange turban with a jewelled brooch, an orange shawl and dhoti, layered gold beaded necklaces and a red bindi. He has long dark hair, a small lapel microphone, and points his right index finger while smiling and speaking to an audience. Swamiji (probable) appears to be giving a discourse; the long swept-back hair, orange turban and saffron clothing with gold necklaces are the qualifying cues.2012-04-14A seated man in orange sleeveless robes and a long rudraksha mala sits with his hands clasped in his lap, a red tilak on his forehead, in front of an ornate gold throne back with repoussé scrollwork. Red floral upholstery frames the seat. A man with long dark hair and a smile, wearing orange, rudraksha beads and a red bindi, fits the page's Swamiji cues of long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha, so this is a probable Swamiji seated in person. Another person's orange garment is partly visible at the lower right edge.2010-10-19April 14 20122012-04-14July 22 20122012-07-22November 05 20102010-11-05A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a red-cushioned golden throne with an ornate gold repoussé backrest. His palms are pressed together in anjali mudra at chest level with eyes closed. He wears a heavy gold bead necklace with a gold pendant, a pearl-strand mala and a rudraksha bracelet on his upper arm, plus a red kumkum bindi on his forehead. A small microphone on a gooseneck stand rises beside him.2011-02-22 +1 copiesA photograph of a man seated on a golden throne (peetha) decorated with a thick arrangement of multicoloured flower garlands in white, yellow, green, red and purple. He wears an orange turban, orange robes and a long white and red flower garland, with a beaded rudraksha-style necklace, gold bangles, and a red forehead mark, and holds a white fly-whisk. Behind him stands a gilded throne backrest with carved details, and rows of small oil lamps hang from gold chains, glowing against a dark wall lined with lit lamps. The setting suggests a puja or ceremonial occasion. Appearance-based identification is probable: the orange turban, saffron robes, and rudraksha necklace are present, and the page labels this as an event with Swamiji, so he is marked as probable Swamiji seated in a ceremonial position.2011-12-11October 17 20102010-10-17
