October 05 20112011-10-05February 10 20122012-02-10A man with long swept-back dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne with a carved arched backrest, decorated with red and yellow marigold garlands. He wears a green draped garment with gold border, a red rudraksha mala and gold-toned armbands, and he is seated and smiling. Behind him a large banner shows deity murti figures framed by red, yellow and green floral garlands, with a golden peacock figure in the lower right. A decorated orange flag hangs on a silver pole beside the throne. Printed red text reading Brahmotsava appears at the top right of the banner. Because the page names Swamiji and the seated man shows long hair, a rudraksha mala and ornate green and gold clothing, he is a probable match for Swamiji.2011-10-29February 10 20122012-02-10December 22 20112011-12-22November 25 20172017-11-25February 27 20162016-02-27A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with plush maroon cushions and a tiger-striped fabric draped over the seat, speaking and gesturing with his right hand. He wears an orange-saffron robe with a yellow-striped wrap, a long ornate gold necklace with a red bead strand, gold bangles and a red bindi, with long dark hair. Beside him on a raised gilded platform stands a deity murti dressed in a white and gold garment, adorned with garlands of red, orange and pink flowers, a gold crown and a raised hand. A second smaller murti in dark clothing sits beside it. The backdrop is gold-framed with maroon curtains and a blue wall.2013-04-14October 05 20112011-10-05December 05 20112011-12-05A photograph of a temple stage with red curtains, a golden Nandi bull and a golden ornate throne canopy. A seated man in an orange-red robe and red-orange turban sits on a red cushioned seat before a silver-framed backdrop, with his hands folded in his lap, and a microphone stand stands beside him. To the right, a deity murti in a green silk sari-like garment and white flower garlands is set in a golden arch. A shirtless priest in an orange dhoti stands at left, performing a ritual near oil lamps, and a second attendant in dark clothing is partially visible at the far left. Golden standing female figures flank the central throne, and a silver bowl and lamps sit on the floor. Offerings of flowers and brass items are placed in front of the stage.2017-11-11January 31 20162016-01-31
