Indoor photo at an ashram hall. A long-haired man in saffron-orange cloth with a white vibhuti mark on his forehead and a large ornate gold pendant and gold necklaces stands at centre, smiling and holding a folded paper while facing an elderly bald man in a white shirt with a white forehead mark who has his hands together in greeting. Other devotees in white and pink shirts, a man in an orange robe with rudraksha beads, and a shaved-headed attendant in saffron stand nearby. Behind them is a tray of offerings and a large framed portrait of a saffron-turbaned man on a red backdrop with golden decorations.2012-09-23A photograph of an indoor satsang or ritual gathering at an ashram hall. In the centre-right, a man with long swept-back black hair, a white forehead mark, an orange-saffron shawl and multiple gold necklaces and bangles stands holding a small yellow card. Appearance-based probable candidate for a person, identified by long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ornate gold necklaces; he is receiving an offering. In front, an older man in white clothes with a vertical white forehead mark holds a gold ceremonial object with chains and a flower. Other standing men, one in a green shirt and one in a pink striped shirt, watch. Behind is a large framed portrait of a turbaned figure with a vermilion-red background, flowers and a golden lamp stand. A shaven-headed young man in orange robes with a gold necklace stands nearby.2012-09-23A photograph of an indoor event with a man in an orange-saffron robe, red and gold beaded garlands, gold ornaments and a dark mark on his forehead, holding a white printed sheet of paper and looking down at it. Beside him a shaved-headed man in orange wears a white tilak stripe and a rudraksha-style necklace and smiles. An older man in a white shirt holds a small white paper and gestures toward them, while another man in a white shirt and a shaved-headed attendant in orange stand at the edges. A bare-shouldered orange-robed figure is seen from behind at the right. A dark red curtain and warm lights are in the background.2013-05-28May 28 20132013-05-28April 14 20122012-04-14May 28 20132013-05-28April 14 20122012-04-14 +1 copiesMay 28 20132013-05-28A photograph of a long-haired man in a red shawl and red top, with a red bindi, a white pearl necklace, gold pendant and rudraksha malas, smiling as he receives a folded white paper from an older man in a white shirt who holds his palms cupped together. Behind them, shaven-headed men in white and an orange-robed monk stand near a silver tray at the bottom edge. The man in red has long swept-back hair and a crown-free but ornate, distinctive presentation with multiple rudraksha malas and a ceremonial gold necklace, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) in the central role of receiving a petition. Background includes yellow and orange drapes.2011-02-16Indoor photo of a satsang gathering. A bare-chested figure with long swept-back dark hair, yellow and red-bead garlands, a brown-saffron cloth, a rudraksha mala and gold bangles and armlets extends a folded paper to devotees. Three devotees in white kurtas and dhotis stand with palms pressed together in anjali; one wears glasses and an orange-striped garment at left. Other attendees stand in the background. The figure's cues are a person depiction in person, based on hair, garlands, rudraksha and saffron attire.2013-05-29A photograph of a ritual blessing in a temple-like hall. A long-haired man in an orange saffron robe with a gold-toned necklace, rudraksha-style beaded malas, and gold armlets places his right hand on the head of a seated, bespectacled older man in a white shirt. The orange-robed figure holds a folded white paper in his left hand and smiles. Behind them, priests in white dhotis and orange garments stand, a decorated altar with a red throne-like seat glows in the background, and a tray of small objects sits at lower right. Swamiji (probable): the long, swept-back hair, saffron robe, ornate gold necklace and beaded malas fit the page's Swamiji attribution, so this is an appearance-based candidate.2012-04-14May 28 20132013-05-28
