January 05 20132013-01-05A photograph of a man standing centre-frame before an ornate gold throne with carved lion figures and red velvet cushions, a tiger-striped cloth draped on the seat, and deep red velvet drapes behind. He raises both arms high with open palms and smiles broadly. He wears a rust-brown dhoti and matching shawl, a red and white flower garland, layered rudraksha malas, a gold pendant, gold bangles, earrings and a red bindi. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair, saffron-brown robes, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold ornaments, appearing as a standing presenter before the throne.2013-10-21May 29 20132013-05-29Photo 11737204July 10 20132013-07-10April 19 20132013-04-19 +4 copiesA man stands on a white stage before a deep red velvet backdrop and gilded thrones with lion-shaped armrests. He wears a maroon-and-gold turban, a maroon garment with gold borders wrapped as a dhoti-style robe, gold beaded necklaces and a long pink and orange flower garland, with gold armbands on both upper arms. He raises both hands overhead with a broad smile. The visible traits of a long-haired, saffron or ornate-clad figure with distinctive adornments are absent, so identity is not established from appearance. Only one person is present.2013-11-22 +1 copiesMarch 06 20132013-03-06A barefoot man in a brown dhoti and brown shawl with gold borders stands on a patterned rug before an ornate golden throne flanked by two golden lion sculptures with red cushions. He raises both arms in a welcoming gesture, smiling, and wears a white garland of flowers, a gold necklace with a pendant, and a red tilak on his forehead. A white bandage covers one forearm. Behind him are a gold-arched backdrop and hanging tassels in pink, orange and blue. a person: the figure matches a long-haired-free presentation only weakly, with shaved head and white garland rather than distinctive long hair or saffron robes, so identity remains uncertain.2013-10-08a person seated on an ornate red velvet throne in front of a heavily gilded golden backdrop, smiling and raising both hands in a teaching gesture while speaking into a head microphone. He wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over the shoulder, a gold necklace with round gold beads, gold hoop earrings, and a white vibhuti marking on the forehead with a red kumkum dot. He is garlanded with long pink and white flower garlands with yellow accents. A wristwatch is visible on one wrist. Only one person is present.2013-03-06A photograph of a smiling bearded man in a maroon-brown dhoti and shawl stands barefoot on a patterned carpet with both palms raised beside his head. He wears long white and orange-red flower garlands, rudraksha beads, a gold pendant and bangles, with a vibhuti line on his forehead. Behind him is an ornate gilded seat with a tiger-skin cushion and a large jewelled silver-and-gold backdrop with a stone-set arch. Scattered yellow flowers lie on the carpet. The figure has distinctive garlands and rudraksha cues and sits in a ceremonial setting, so the appearance is a person candidate, standing in person before the throne as a devotee-facing speaker.2016-10-09July 04 20132013-07-04
