A seated figure in saffron-orange and red cloth, with a white vibhuti mark on the forehead, wears a red-and-white flower garland and a leaf garland, and sits on a red zebra-striped throne beside a gold lion-headed armrest. Before them a woman in a white sari and a man in a white shirt with an orange lanyard kneel with folded hands, holding fruit offerings. A silver tray of oranges and limes sits in the foreground. Behind them, women in white and yellow saris and an orange-robed attendant stand near a large gold throne draped with garlands. A patterned red rug covers the floor.2014-11-30A seated man with a white forehead tilak, rudraksha-style beaded necklace and bare upper body wrapped in orange cloth hands a banana to a woman in a cream and brown sari. He sits on a red striped throne with gold lion-head carvings and an orange cushion. A bunch and heap of bananas lie in front of the throne. A kneeling man in a white shirt with palms pressed together bows before him. Behind, women in orange and rust robes stand, one holding a baby wrapped in a pink and white blanket, and a ceiling fan and red curtain frame the room.2014-07-08March 13 20162016-03-13A seated figure in a red-orange turban and bare-chested orange-red wrap, wearing a red and white flower garland, sits on a red upholstered throne with gold lion-head armrests. A woman in white with a brown rudraksha mala and a man in white kneeling at the lower right offer something on a tray near the throne.

He is being offered a gesture by a man in a white shirt with a red lanyard, who holds a small gold-coloured object and touches the seated man's forehead area. Behind them a woman in an orange sari with rudraksha mala and vibhuti marks stands, along with a man in white and a partly visible young boy. A red curtain and an air conditioner are in the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and a ceremonial garland, consistent with a Swamiji candidate receiving a ritual gesture.2014-04-27November 30 20142014-11-30July 11 20142014-07-11November 30 20142014-11-30A seated man wearing a red-orange shawl draped over bare shoulders, a long white-and-yellow flower garland and a cascade of rudraksha beads, with a sandalwood-type tilak on his forehead, places his right hand on the head of a kneeling man in a white shirt with a red lanyard.
