September 27 20122012-09-27A seated man with long swept-back dark hair, a white vertical tilak on his forehead, a saffron-orange robe and a large rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders touches the head of a shaven-headed man in a white kurta who raises both arms overhead in a blessing gesture. A peacock-feather fan and gold ornate seat are at left, and a silver trident stands behind them against a red-and-white striped wall. The seated figure matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of long hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala, and is shown blessing a devotee.2014-08-26A photograph of two men in orange-red robes in an indoor ceremonial setting with red drapes behind them. On the left, a smiling man with long dark hair swept back, wearing a red-orange shawl, a gold beaded necklace and a red-and-gold bindi, extends his right arm to touch the forehead of a second man. The second man, with short dark hair, closes his eyes, wears a white forehead mark, an orange shawl, a gold bangle, and holds his hands together near his face. A silver staff topped with a ornate finial and a golden cobra-hooded object stand beside them, with a golden deity murti at the lower left.2014-07-24December 03 20132013-12-03April 29 20122012-04-29A photograph of a seated man in an orange-brown wrap with long dark hair and a white forehead mark, a rudraksha mala hanging at his chest, placing his right palm on the forehead of a smiling man in a pink t-shirt and orange lanyard. The recipient kneels with hands joined in front, eyes closed. Plain cream wall and an air conditioner in the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's long hair, orange-brown clothing and rudraksha mala are the visible cues.2012-10-07April 29 20122012-04-29A photograph of two men in orange clothing in a bright indoor hall with white walls and a red curtain. On the left, a man with long swept-back dark hair, a red bindi, a multi-strand rudraksha mala, a ceremonial pendant and an orange garment with gold border points his finger toward a brass deity murti at the left edge. On the right, a bearded man in an orange hooded wrap and gold-bordered shawl holds a bamboo staff with orange cloth and presses his palms together in anjali. Behind them stand a bald man in white, a woman in a white sari and a man in white dhoti with bare upper body. Small crowd of about six visible people.2012-09-27A man with shoulder-length dark hair, vertical white and red tilak on his forehead and a red bindi, wears a saffron-orange shawl and a long rudraksha mala. He sits speaking at right, gesturing gently while looking off-camera. Beside him is a brass oil lamp and a vase of peacock feathers, with a large peacock-patterned orange-and-gold fan behind. The background shows a large portrait of a man with long hair and ornate ceremonial jewellery, indicating a satsang or discourse setting. Appearance cues in the speaker (long hair, saffron shawl, rudraksha mala) match the page's description of Swamiji, so he is a probable candidate for the speaker.2011-10-17Indoor photo in a hall with a red-carpeted dais and ornate gold thrones against a dark backdrop. Two standing men in orange robes pose front and centre. The man on the left has long dark hair, a white tilak with red centre mark, gold-chain necklaces and a rudraksha-style mala, and wears a saffron dhoti with a wide gold border, his hand extended toward the other man. The man on the right has a full dark beard, an orange shawl, a long wooden staff held in one hand and beaded necklaces, hands clasped at his chest. Two more orange-robed men are partly visible behind on the left near the gold chair, and a brass lamp stands on the right. Two white room fans stand on the left.2012-09-27September 05 20142014-09-05A man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl sits smiling in an orange leather armchair on a stage with dark maroon drapes. He wears a long string of gold-toned beads across his chest and a gold necklace, with a red bindi and white vibhuti marks on his forehead. A small microphone is clipped near his face. Beside him on the left is a gilded metal deity murti of a couple. A clear water bottle stands near the murti, and white rice-like flowers or grains lie on the floor near his feet. The presentation matches the page's description of a satsang with Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha-style beads, seated on a throne-like chair.2013-03-05
