September 10 20122012-09-10A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with a carved, tiered backrest and lion-form armrests against a black draped backdrop. He wears a white and red flower garland with a red tassel, a red bindi, and a rudraksha-style mala, smiling with eyes closed while hands rest in his lap. Flower vases with orange and pink blooms stand on gold pedestals, and a microphone stands at his right. The figure is an appearance-based Swamiji (probable) candidate: long swept-back hair, saffron robes and ceremonial gold-trimmed throne seating are visible cues, so he is treated as present in person.2009-12-23September 10 20122012-09-10September 08 20122012-09-08A seated figure sits cross-legged on an ornate golden throne (peetha) with a red velvet cushion, garlanded with marigolds and red flowers. He wears an orange turban, orange and saffron robes with a maroon shawl, a white flower garland and beaded necklace, and bangles on his wrists. Brass oil lamps with bird-shaped tops flank the throne, and flower petals are scattered on the platform. Behind him is a pink-violet painted backdrop with a golden deity relief on the left and a temple-like skyline on the right. One physical person is present.2011-10-20A photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate gold throne with elaborate repoussé carved scrollwork and lion-like motifs behind him. He has long dark hair pulled back, a small red bindi on his forehead, gold earrings, and wears a rust-orange shawl edged with gold over a bare shoulder, with a long rudraksha-style bead necklace of orange-brown beads and a gold chain. A small microphone is visible near his face. Along the right edge a sliver of orange-and-red decorative drapery shows. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron-orange shawl, rudraksha beads, ceremonial gold ornaments and throne match the appearance cues for the page subject, a seated speaker on a golden throne.2013-09-22A seated man in an orange saffron dhoti and shawl sits on a velvet maroon throne with a gilded golden backrest and a gold lion figure at his right. He wears a long red and green flower garland, layered beaded rudraksha-style malas, and a gold pendant, with a red tilak on his forehead and his hair in a topknot. He holds a silver ceremonial staff with a finial in his right hand, smiles, and looks to his side. Behind him a painted deity figure in orange holds a staff against a blue and green backdrop. Swamiji (probable): the seated saffron-clad figure with long swept-back hair, ceremonial gold and rudraksha adornments on a throne is a candidate for Paramahamsa Nithyananda.2013-01-12November 23 20102010-11-23July 26 20152015-07-26September 10 20122012-09-10July 26 20152015-07-26July 20 20122012-07-20
