The figure wears a long orange-red mala and gold necklace and makes a hand gesture while facing the viewer. Two large painted guardian statues flank the throne, each with a gold crown, multiple arms and gold necklaces, and a bright tiered oil lamp burns in the foreground. A bald priest in an orange-red shawl with gold border faces the throne from the left. Two women in white saris with gold borders kneel at the lower right beside the throne. The hall is decorated with gold ornaments, hanging bells and chains. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears a red turban, rudraksha-style mala and ornate red-gold clothing on a throne.2014-10-27A seated figure on a large gilded throne with a golden arched back and a small umbrella canopy above, dressed in a red-orange robe with a red turban, a long garland around the neck, and raising one hand in a gesture of teaching. Two standing four-armed deity murti flank the throne, painted in pink, orange and green with gold ornaments, holding attributes including a trident and lotus. In front, a bald priest in orange robes with a golden shawl faces the throne with a lit oil lamp, and two white-clad assistants in white dhotis kneel nearby with a kalasha-style vessel. Ornate painted pillars and a gold-trimmed alcove frame the scene, with a bronze oil lamp at left.2014-10-27 +1 copiesA seated man in a golden throne at the centre of a temple hall, wearing a red-orange turban, saffron-orange robe with a red-maroon shawl, a gold chain and a beaded mala, hands folded in front of him. Two golden standing deity murti flank the throne on either side with gold crowns and necklaces. A gold lion sculpture sits at the base of the throne. In the foreground, a figure in an orange robe seen from behind holds a tall multi-tiered brass oil lamp with lit flames. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, and a red patterned rug covers the floor. Swamiji (probable) is the seated man on the throne, identified by the turban, saffron robe, mala and gold chain.2012-04-04 +1 copiesJune 17 20132013-06-17A seated man in saffron-orange robes with an orange head covering, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and a gold-trimmed ornate necklace sits on a gold throne with red cushions, gesturing as he speaks, in a temple hall framed by two painted multi-armed deity murti standing either side. In front, a young woman in orange clothing sits on a red carpet with hands folded, beside a microphone stand, while a family of devotees sits on the floor in green, pink and purple clothes listening. Brass oil lamps hang from the ceiling above the throne.2012-02-09November 25 20132013-11-25October 27 20142014-10-27Photograph inside a temple-style hall with painted pillars and an ornate gilded throne backed by a dark cloth hung with beads and bells. A bearded man with a black crown or turban, red-orange robe and red bindi sits on the throne with hands raised in blessing. Two devotees in white stand near the base of the throne, one holding a ritual object. To the right stands a multi-armed deity murti in green and red garments with gold ornaments and a crown. Blurred foreground hands hold a ritual implement. Flame-like lamps flank the throne. The page-flagged candidate shows a probable Swamiji presence through the black crown, red-orange robe and throne setting, though appearance cues are partial, so the identity is marked probable.2018-03-25
