A seated man in an orange saffron robe with an orange-and-gold border and a long gold bead necklace sits on a red cushioned throne with ornate gold carved armrests, a red bindi on his forehead. An elderly man with grey hair, wearing white clothes and glasses, bows deeply with his head pressed toward the seated man's feet while another man with a shaved head in an orange shawl and white garment kneels in the foreground, and a younger man in white kurta watches at right. Behind them stands a video camera on a tripod, brass oil lamps on a gold-framed side table at left, and a backdrop of green banyan tree foliage with red curtains at the left edge.

He wears a saffron-orange robe draped over one shoulder and a long dark rudraksha mala. His hands rest clasped in his lap. Behind him stands a gilded deity murti pair, one figure wearing an orange turban and holding a trident, the other in green and magenta with flower garlands. Two people seen from behind, one in orange and one in white, sit facing the throne in devotion. Pink ornamental graphic panels frame the shrine. The seated man has long dark hair and a clean-shaven face, giving a Swamiji (probable) appearance based on the saffron robe, rudraksha mala and throne setting. Three physical people are visible.2010-08-21August 21 20092009-08-21A man in saffron-orange robes with a gold-trimmed border sits eyes-closed on an ornate gold throne with a repoussé backrest and red cushions, hands folded in his lap. He wears a heavy gold necklace with a pendant, a red bindi on his forehead and a gold armlet. In front of the throne, a kneeling devotee in white clothing with a dark cord around the neck has hands raised in namaskar. A gold tray holds pink flowers and red offerings. A red brick wall and a garland of orange and yellow flowers form the background.2011-02-22A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a carved gold backrest, wearing an orange saffron wrap over bare shoulders and a long gold bead necklace, with a small red mark on his forehead and long swept-back hair. He looks down toward two people in front of him: a man in a white shirt seen from behind, and a woman in an orange and yellow patterned salwar kameez with her hands pressed together in añjali. A brass oil lamp and a small table with fruit and offerings stand to the right, and a stylized forest backdrop with an electric fan is behind. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, an orange wrap and a long gold bead necklace on a throne, consistent with the page's claim.2011-02-20A seated figure in orange robes with long dark hair sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, wearing a large garland of red and yellow flowers. A man in a white shirt and dark trousers bends forward, touching the seated figure's forehead with his hand in a gesture of reverence. To the left, saffron-robed sannyasis and a man in white stand watching. On the right, a woman in a white outfit with orange bangles holds a small item. The backdrop is a large reddish-orange photographic print of a rocky, carved temple scene. The figure on the throne shows distinctive long hair and orange robes, but the appearance is not clear enough to confirm an identity.2009-08-21A seated figure in an orange saffron robe sits on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions against a dark blue draped curtain. He has long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead, and smiles while raising his right hand toward the forehead of a young man in a white kurta who stands before him with palms joined in respectful greeting. A white cloth rests on the left cushion, and a microphone stand is visible at right. The seated robed figure fits the probable Swamiji cues of long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a throne, while the standing devotee wears plain white ritual clothing.2010-09-13 +1 copies
