A photograph under a large tented pavilion with blue-scalloped canopy trim and red carpeting. A bent-over man in a white shirt and jeans touches the feet of a saffron-robed figure wearing a red-and-gold shawl and holding a mala, while a few onlookers look on. Around them stand several people in orange and red robes, white dhotis, and saffron shawls, some with tilak markings and rudraksha malas, and a man in a pale patterned shirt. Nearby a banner and signage are visible. The scene is an outdoor ashram or ritual gathering. Visible people are numerous; several figures stand with hands together in respectful posture.2015-01-12A photograph of a crowded outdoor ritual setting with a dense group of men gathered closely. Two men in saffron-orange dhotis and shawls stand centre, one wearing a long beaded rudraksha mala and a gold pendant, the other with a gold necklace and multiple beaded malas. A man in a white dhoti bends low in front of them, seemingly offering respect. Around them, men in white kurtas and white dhotis stand watching, one holding a long wooden staff at left. A cameraperson with a video camera is visible at the left edge, and colourful paper decorations hang overhead beneath a canopy.2012-05-18A photograph inside an orange-draped tent at a crowded event. In the centre, a man with long swept-back hair wears a tall orange turban, an orange robe and shawl, and layered ornate gold necklaces with a rudraksha mala; he raises one hand in address. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, turban, saffron robe and ornate gold necklaces match the cues. To his right, a shaved-headed man in orange robes and a rudraksha mala stands beside him. On the left, a devotee in white dhoti with a rudraksha mala looks on, and in the foreground a man in a brown vest bends low, touching the floor in obeisance. Many other people in orange, white and casual clothes fill the background, with orange banners and hanging decorations above.2013-02-22December 29 20102010-12-29May 18 20122012-05-18January 13 20152015-01-13Outdoor event under a tent on a red carpet in front of a large gold lotus-petal backdrop. A long-haired man in saffron-orange robes with a gold-bordered dhoti extends his hand toward a kneeling man in a white shirt and white dhoti who bows low to the floor. Around them stand other men in saffron robes and orange shawls, and men in white shirts, white dhotis and a rudraksha mala. A bald man in an orange shawl stands at right. The saffron-robed man in the centre has distinctive long hair and a rudraksha-style necklace; this is a person appearance cue, and he is a person receiving a devotee's obeisance.2010-12-29February 12 20132013-02-12May 18 20122012-05-18April 27 20162016-04-27September 11 20132013-09-11 +1 copiesDecember 29 20102010-12-29
