A tall man with long swept-back dark hair wears a rust-orange and mustard-gold shawl, a dhoti with gold border, and a long rudraksha mala, standing on a circular floor design. A small child in a striped shirt reaches toward him while an older man in a checked shirt watches and a woman in a pink sari holds a baby. An older woman in a red-and-green sari and a man in white kneel or bend at the front edge.2013-07-23A seated figure with a bare back, wearing a red-and-orange shawl and a fresh red-and-white flower garland, places his right hand on the head of a young boy in a navy blue t-shirt who leans forward with hands together. A woman in white with a rudraksha mala and a man in white with a red shawl stand nearby, and a gilded lion-faced throne armrest with fruit on the floor is in the foreground. Two shaven-headed young men in saffron sit at right, and a white tent with red pillars and many seated devotees forms the background. The scene suggests a blessing being given, with the seated figure's upper body partially visible; his face is turned away from the camera. a person cues are the swept-back hair and saffron-orange clothing, but the figure is shown from behind, so the candidate's identity is uncertain.2015-05-31A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha mala sits on an orange-cushioned throne in a temple sanctum, reading papers held in his hands. Before him, a shaved-headed man in white with an orange shawl leans forward, a young boy in white kneels, and a woman in white folds her hands in prayer. Behind them stands a deity murti draped in red, garlanded with marigolds, flanked by brass lamps and a kalasha-like arrangement, with a yellow-shawled attendant in white at the right. The seated figure is an appearance-based a person (long dark swept hair, saffron robes, rudraksha mala), so this is marked unsure. Five people are visible in total.2010-07-23July 23 20132013-07-23A photograph from a seated programme in a hall. A central figure with long swept-back dark hair, a gold-yellow forehead mark, a gold necklace, rudraksha mala beads across the chest and wrist bands sits on a wooden throne-like chair beside a tall silver staff, smiling as a woman in white reaches toward them. Two women in front, one in orange and one in a floral blue top, lean in. Men in orange, white and blue shirts and rudraksha mala sit among the audience behind, with a microphone stand visible at left. The figure's appearance with long hair, rudraksha malas and gold necklace is a distinctive presentation cue, so this is a person seated on the peetha and the people are devotees receiving a blessing.2015-12-09A photograph of a seated man in orange-saffron robes on an ornate red throne with gold lion and peacock-feather carvings. He wears a pink and white flower garland, a gold-colored sash, and a white tripundra mark on his forehead, and he smiles while extending his hand toward a young boy in a black t-shirt who reaches up toward him. Beside the throne stands a silver trident and a gold-and-silver ceremonial staff. A woman in a white sari with a long rudraksha mala stands nearby, and a few people in white clothes sit or stand in the background of a red-draped hall with bamboo panels and curtains. The seated man is an appearance-based a person candidate given the saffron robes, flower garland and ornate throne, though his face is not used for identification.2014-07-16April 27 20162016-04-27July 21 20122012-07-21
