Photograph of a seated man in an ornate black turban with a green and gold headband and gold jewelled crest, wearing a saffron-orange robe, layered rudraksha beads, gold necklaces and pink-and-white flower garlands. He has a bare upper arm with gold bangles, a tilak on his forehead, and smiles while raising his right hand in blessing toward a younger man in a dark shirt who bows with his head lowered in front of him. Behind them stand a silver embossed throne backdrop with gold and jewelled motifs, a leopard-print cushion, and a large gold ceremonial trumpet. The scene suggests a darshan blessing. Swamiji (probable): the seated man in the turban, saffron robe, rudraksha malas and gold necklaces, shown receiving devotees on a throne.2018-04-20April 03 20182018-04-03April 03 20182018-04-03April 22 20182018-04-22A seated man with a broad smile and closed eyes sits on a red cushioned throne in front of an ornate gold carved backdrop. He wears a thick red and white flower garland, a red-and-gold shawl with gold border, gold armbands and bangles, and a gold necklace. He has white sacred ash on his forehead with a red dot and a full dark beard. Two people are partially visible in the foreground: a man in a white shirt on the left, bending forward with his hands together, and a child's head at the bottom. Another arm reaches into the frame at the right edge. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, with long swept-back hair, gold ornaments and a red-and-gold shawl, receiving devotees during a public event.2017-04-09A photograph of a seated man in a deep maroon-red garment receiving a ritual offering in an ornate, golden-yellow setting. He wears a crescent-topped headdress, layered garlands of white jasmine, yellow and red flowers, and multiple beaded bracelets and gold bangles, and smiles with closed eyes. Before him, a bare-chested priest with orange-and-gold beaded necklaces and a white dhoti bends forward, extending his hands toward the seated man's arm, holding a gold bowl or ceremonial vessel. A second attendant in white with rudraksha beads stands behind, and a golden throne with fringed red cloth and a golden trident-like ornament appears at the left. Green leaves and garlands decorate the back wall.2016-07-19April 04 20182018-04-04April 03 20182018-04-03September 18 20162016-09-18April 21 20182018-04-21A seated man in an ornate turban with a swept crest, a pink and white garland, multiple gold necklaces, a saffron-orange garment and gold armbands sits on a leopard-print throne before a gilded horse-head motif and red floral decorations.
