May 29 20132013-05-29A photograph of a temple corridor with a central man walking along a red runner between metal railings. He wears a rust-brown dhoti-style garment with gold-yellow bands, a gold ceremonial pendant on a beaded necklace, gold bangles on his upper arms and wrists, and his hair swept back. Behind him, a deity murti stands in a shrine lit with warm light, framed by pink and red drapes. To the right, several people in orange-red robes and rudraksha malas stand with hands folded in namaskar. A man in white stands on the left near a table. The scene reads as a temple procession or darshan setting. Swamiji (probable) is walking at the centre, identified by the swept-back hair, gold pendant necklace, and ceremonial saffron-toned garments.2013-07-02A temple interior with a red carpet runner. A central man in a rust-brown dhoti with gold borders and a gold-coloured waist cloth walks forward, wearing a multi-strand gold and beaded necklace, bangles and a white forehead marking. Two men flank him in white or orange clothing with rudraksha malas and white forehead tilaks. On the left a woman in a red sari with folded hands follows, and on the right an older man in white holds a microphone. Behind them, a shrine holds a gold-framed deity murti with a red and pink backdrop, a kalasha and floral garlands, under a red and white canopy.2012-04-23 +2 copiesJuly 02 20132013-07-02A photograph of a man in an orange-brown dhoti and shawl with a long gold-coloured floral garland walking along a red-carpeted walkway under a corrugated roof.

In the foreground a man with long hair, white tilak and forehead marking, wearing an orange-saffron dhoti with a gold border and an orange shawl, walks with eyes lowered. A rudraksha mala and gold beaded necklace hang on his chest; the appearance is uncertain, so he is described only as a man in ceremonial saffron attire. Behind him a line of orange-robed followers, some with white-painted arms and foreheads, walk with palms pressed together in anjali. Beyond the railing, a shrine holds golden deity murtis, garlanded with flowers, under an ornate golden arch.2013-05-17A photograph inside a temple hall with a red-carpeted walkway lined by metal railings.
