Outdoor photo at a stone temple site with worn sandstone steps and carved relief figures. In the foreground, a barefoot man in a flowing orange-saffron robe with a bare right shoulder leans on a long reddish wooden staff, with a rudraksha mala of dark beads and a red-orange tilak mark on his forehead; his hair is swept back. Behind him, a group in white kurtas and white dhotis and women in white saris with gold borders stand on the steps, some holding a bag, a booklet and an orange-fringed fan-shaped object. Carved stone figures and a moss-patched wall are at right. The visual cues of the foreground figure (saffron robe, swept-back hair, mala and staff) are distinctive, so he is shown as a probable Swamiji candidate in person.2007-07-03July 03 20072007-07-03July 10 20082008-07-10A man stands outdoors on grass in front of bamboo and a banana plant, holding a long carved wooden staff in his left hand and resting his right hand on his hip.
