September 14 20092009-09-14September 14 20092009-09-14Indoor photo of a seated man in a saffron sleeveless top and saffron cloth with long dark hair tied in a bun and a light tilak on his forehead, smiling as he looks down at a small white card held in his hands. In the foreground, the back of a woman with dark hair is partly visible at left. Behind him stands a bald man in a white kurta with an orange-red shawl and a red tilak, watching. To the left, an older man with white hair in a white shirt and a younger man in white with a yellow shawl stand nearby. A white tiled wall and a black speaker are visible in the background.2010-07-29July 13 20092009-07-13August 06 20092009-08-06A photograph of an indoor hall with pale walls and hanging orange and multicoloured banners. In the centre, a man in an orange saffron robe with a gold-bordered shawl and a white-and-gold garland stands with his head turned, gesturing with one hand toward a man in a white shirt and white dhoti who holds a blue paper. Beside them, a bald man in orange robes holds a white tray with gold items. Several men in white dhotis and shirts and orange-robed monastics stand around, one with a rudraksha mala, and a foreign-looking man in a white shirt stands at the back. A partially visible figure at the right holds a gold-coloured tray. The orange-robed man with the long swept-back hair and garland matches the page's Swamiji cues of saffron clothing, a ceremonial garland and long hair, so this is an appearance-based probable identification.2011-02-22A long-haired figure in a saffron-orange shawl wrapped over the shoulders and multiple gold-beaded rudraksha-style necklaces stands at the centre, extending a folded white paper or prasadam to a row of men in white shirts and white dhotis with hands folded in greeting. Behind him a shaved-headed attendant in a saffron cloth and beaded necklace stands by a tray of fruit, and an older man in white with an orange shawl is visible at right. The setting is an indoor hall with a projection screen and blue drapery. The central figure matches the probable Swamiji appearance cues of swept-back long hair, saffron clothing and ceremonial beads, and is presented as the one giving prasadam to devotees.2011-02-27December 17 20092009-12-17December 15 20092009-12-15July 27 20062006-07-27December 11 20112011-12-11A photograph in a bright white-walled room of a man in an orange-saffron robe with a tilak on his forehead, wearing a long white-and-red garland and a rudraksha mala, receiving greetings from an elderly man in white clothes who holds his hand. Nearby, a man in white shirt and dhoti stands with palms pressed together in namaste, and a younger man in orange robe on the right holds a tray draped in orange cloth with a brass object on it. Other devotees in orange and white clothes stand behind, and the bald figure at far left wears an orange robe and mala. a person cue is present on the central robed man: long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and rudraksha mala with saffron clothing, consistent with the page's reference; he is an in-person candidate. Several people are visible.2012-09-12
