Behind them a woman in white with a sandalwood tilak and a rudraksha mala stands watching, and an older woman in white and others in red and white stand nearby. The scene suggests a satsang initiation moment.2015-08-26October 14 20102010-10-14November 22 20152015-11-22December 26 20132013-12-26A photo of a seated figure on a red-cushioned golden throne backed by an ornate gold carved panel, with golden lion-shaped armrests.

A seated figure on the left wears an orange-red turban, orange and yellow robes, layered gold and beaded necklaces, and bracelets; he smiles and extends his hands to receive an offering. Another kneeling man in orange and yellow with a rudraksha mala and a shaved head sits in the centre, watching. On the right, a man in white with yellow tilak and a rudraksha mala leans forward to hand over a small object. Brass oil lamps stand behind them and attendants in orange and white with gold necklaces stand at the back. Only the seated central figure's appearance is distinctive, but the page does not place a person at this event, so identity is unsure. +1 copiesA night-time outdoor event where a man in red and gold ceremonial dress sits on an ornate red and gold throne, wearing a red turban with a gold ornament, gold necklaces and armbands. He holds a silver bowl with his hands while a young boy in saffron-orange robes with white forehead bands and beaded necklaces kneels before him. Several other saffron-clad young attendants with white forehead markings stand behind, and a plastic water bottle sits on the throne's seat. A white electric fan and palm plants are visible at the edge of the scene. The throne figure's appearance is ambiguous, so the identity is uncertain.2013-11-20February 08 20132013-02-08December 13 20132013-12-13
