A photograph of a ceremonial moment on a stage. A man with a shaved head and a turban in cream and gold, wearing a white dhoti-style garment with a gold-embroidered yellow shawl, multiple gold beaded necklaces and a large gold pendant, smiles while adjusting the yellow shawl. Facing him is an elderly bearded sadhu with a tall cream turban, sacred ash marks, rudraksha mala and an orange robe under a red and gold embroidered shawl. A man in a white checked shirt stands at left, and a large orange-robed portrait banner fills the right edge. Dark curtains form the backdrop.

October 16 20102010-10-16A photograph of three men at an indoor stage event. On the right, a smiling man wears a white dhoti-style wrap, a pale yellow turban with a red tilak, a heavy gold necklace with bell-shaped beads and a gold pendant, and holds his hands together with a bearded elderly sannyasi in an orange robe with a red and gold brocade shawl and a pale turban. The elder has a white vibhuti mark and extends his hands toward him. On the left, a man in a white-and-grey checked shirt faces away from the camera.

An elderly bearded man with long white beard and yellow-orange turban, wearing a red-and-gold shawl over orange cloth, clasps hands with a smiling younger man in a cream-yellow turban and gold-patterned yellow shawl over white dhoti, who wears layered gold necklaces. A man in a white checked shirt stands at left, and an attendant in orange clothing stands behind them. At right an orange banner shows a portrait of a saffron-turbaned figure with Kannada script. The younger man has long, swept-back hair not visible here, and the older man's appearance does not clearly match the a person cues, so identity is uncertain.2010-10-16 +1 copiesOctober 16 20102010-10-16 +1 copiesJanuary 31 20132013-01-31A seated man in a tan turban and white dhoti, with gold beaded necklaces, smiles and gestures while sitting in an ornate red and gold throne chair before blurred warm lights. Beside him, an elderly bearded sadhu with a long white beard, white sacred ash stripes on his head and chest, a beaded rudraksha-style mala, and orange-saffron robes sits leaning toward him with his hands clasped in conversation. A third person in orange clothing is partly visible at the top right edge. The seated man in the throne matches the a person appearance cues described by the page, but his face is not a basis for identification and the cues are only partly distinctive, so the match is uncertain.2010-10-16 +1 copiesPhotograph of a ceremonial exchange on a stage with a dark blue draped backdrop and orange fabric hanging at left. A bare-chested man with long swept-back dark hair, a red bindi and an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl with red border smiles as he drapes a gold-bordered orange and red silk shawl over an elderly man with long grey-white dreadlocks, a white beard, yellow-ochre tilak marks and a red bindi. The elderly man, wearing a similar orange-red silk shawl, presses his palms together in gratitude. A third man at right, with tilak marks and an orange garment with rudraksha mala, looks on. Circumstantially this could match a person, but the appearance cues are not distinctive enough to confirm.2011-02-13August 09 20152015-08-09November 27 20112011-11-27May 11 20162016-05-11October 15 20152015-10-15January 17 20162016-01-17 +1 copies
