Indoor photo in a plain cream room with a window and wall air conditioner. A seated figure in orange robes sits on a red cushioned throne with an ornate gold frame, and an orange cloth lies across the seat. A man in white kurta and dhoti stands before the throne holding up a white paper, while a woman in white with a yellow shawl hands over a folder. Devotees in saffron, purple and white clothes stand nearby, including a woman in a purple-and-orange sari and a child in pink. The seated figure has a dark bun and bare arms, with no clear cues to identify the person; the seated person is shown as a devotee-facing figure on the throne. A camera and a small screen appear at the right edge.2010-02-07January 23 20102010-01-23A photograph of a VIP blessing in a plain room with a gold-carved throne upholstered in red and zebra-striped fabric. A seated figure with long dark hair wears an orange robe and red sleeveless top, receiving a man in a white shirt and white trousers who bends forward to clasp their hands. Behind them, devotees stand watching: a woman in a brown sari with a blue shawl, a woman in a maroon sari holding a baby in yellow, an older man in white, and a man in an orange robe with a mala. A small girl in a pale dress sits at the lower left, and a seated person in orange appears at the lower right. A table draped in white stands beside the throne. A copyright overlay is visible in the lower right corner.2009-08-09A photograph of a home visit in an ashram-style room with cream walls and a wooden door. A figure in orange robes with a white and pink flower garland sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne, one hand raised in blessing toward a line of visitors. A woman in a blue-trimmed white saree with floral print stands at left beside a girl, and a man in a white shirt and dark trousers bends forward to offer his hand. A young child in white dress stands near the throne, and a tray of fruit or offerings sits on a low table. The seated figure matches the appearance of a long-haired sannyasi in saffron, with cues of swept-back hair and a garland, so this is a person, seated and receiving devotees during a pada puja-style blessing.2009-08-09A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a white and green flower garland sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne, receiving devotees in a plain room. Several devotees approach to offer respect: an older man in white shirt and white dhoti on the left, a woman in an orange sari with a flower in her hair, a man in a pink-striped shirt, and a woman in a blue top with a young child. A small child in a maroon shirt stands near the throne steps, and a red cushion with flower petals lies at the feet. Visible people include about seven or eight devotees plus the seated figure.2009-08-09August 09 20092009-08-09February 07 20102010-02-07December 03 20112011-12-03November 10 20102010-11-10Photograph inside a plain cream-walled room with a bright window and a ceiling light. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with hair pulled back sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions and a red-cushioned footstool, feet bare and resting on the stool. Standing before the throne, a man in white ritual clothes with folded hands offers respect, and beside him a man in white with a yellow shawl holds a framed picture or document. Devotees stand to the left: a man in white kurta, a woman in a purple and orange sari, a woman in a red patterned kurta with folded hands, and another woman in dark clothes. A red cloth lies on the throne arm. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure in orange robes on the gold throne has long swept-back hair and saffron clothing, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji as the seated subject.2010-02-07December 04 20102010-12-04February 07 20102010-02-07
