A photograph of a man seated on an ornate golden throne with eyes closed, wearing orange robes and a rudraksha mala, with a red bindi on his forehead. He is garlanded with thick bands of yellow, purple and white flowers and green leaves. Behind him is a red banner with decorative lettering. Two people in the foreground are seen from behind: a woman with long light hair in a cream top, and a man in white dhoti with a shaved head and gold neck adornment, with hands joined. A devotee at left wears purple, and a golden seat stands at the right beside a silver figure of a deity murti. Fruit sits on a tray at left. The seated man is a person by his orange robes, rudraksha mala and ornate setting, but the appearance is not clearly distinctive enough to confirm.

A man seated on a gold throne with a floral garland of yellow, orange, green and purple flowers wears orange robes and has bare upper arms, a tilak mark on his forehead, and his eyes closed. Several devotees sit on the floor before him: a man in a white dhoti and shirt on the left, a woman in a cream sari with gold border in the centre, a shaved-headed man in white dhoti with a sacred thread, and women in white and yellow saris on the right. A small brass tray with fruit sits beside the throne and a deity image with red flower garlands is visible at the right edge. The seated figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate, identified by long swept-back hair, orange clothing and a rudraksha-style garland, placed on a throne in a ritual setting.2010-10-12October 16 20102010-10-16 +1 copiesOctober 12 20102010-10-12 +1 copiesOctober 12 20102010-10-12A seated man in a golden ornate throne sits in meditation with eyes closed, wearing a multicoloured striped turban, a saffron-orange shawl and a long rudraksha mala. The throne is framed with yellow and red marigold garlands and green foliage, with gold armrest panels on either side. Behind him a large red banner reads Dasara and bears Kannada text, with a partial image of a deity at the right edge. A water bottle and microphone sit on a small stand at left. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues of a turban, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala are present, so the figure is identified as a probable candidate in person.2010-10-12A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with yellow and purple marigold garlands and green leaves, with red flower accents. He wears long dark hair, a red bindi, and multiple dark rudraksha mala necklaces, hands clasped in his lap, and bare feet resting on a golden base. A microphone on a stand is at his left, and a gold-and-red throne sits beside him. Behind him a large orange backdrop shows Kannada text and a partially visible portrait. The scene appears to be a public talk.2010-10-15A photograph of a seated man in an ornate golden throne decorated with a garland of yellow, purple, white and red flowers. He wears an orange saffron robe, a dark rudraksha mala, and a red bindi on his forehead, with long dark hair swept back, and sits with eyes closed and hands folded in his lap. Behind him a red banner reads 'Dasara' and 'Celebrate' with a partial portrait at the right edge. Floral arrangements of orange lilies, red roses and pink lilies flank the throne. In the foreground, devotees sit with their backs to the camera, including a woman in a white sari with a green border and a bald man in white. The throne is Swamiji (probable) by the saffron robe, rudraksha mala and long hair; the seated figure's presentation matches those cues.2010-10-16
