He wears a long rust-orange beaded necklace with large gold bead pendants, a matching beaded armlet and bracelet, and a white tilak with a red dot on his forehead. His eyes are closed and he stands barefoot on a small folded patterned mat in a dusty, sunlit outdoor setting. Probable Swamiji cues include the long swept-back hair and ornate gold-bead necklace, shown in a calm, meditative pose beside the tree.2013-04-06May 15 20132013-05-15May 17 20132013-05-17A man in profile stands barefoot on a red and blue patterned mat atop a low stone platform, his forehead pressed against the trunk of a large banyan tree with many hanging aerial roots. He wears a saffron-orange dhoti with gold borders and an orange shawl draped over his left shoulder and bare chest, a gold bead necklace, and a white forehead mark. His eyes are closed and his long dark hair falls down his back. A small pale stone and a lamp-like object sit near his feet. A red boundary wall and gravel are visible behind him. The page does not state that a person is present, and the appearance is not a clear enough match to confirm identity, so this is a devotee in meditative prayer.2013-03-01A man in profile leans his head and shoulder against the trunk of a large tree, eyes lowered. He wears a maroon and orange-bordered gold-zari shawl draped over one shoulder, leaving the other arm and chest bare, with a maroon dhoti below. He has a bun of dark hair, a white-painted forehead, a gold beaded necklace, a gold armlet and a gold bracelet. A soft, sunlit outdoor background blurs behind him.2012-04-04A single man stands barefoot on a raised white platform beside a large banyan tree, leaning his forehead gently against its trunk with his eyes closed. He wears a saffron-orange garment with dark red borders and a red triangular-patterned edge on the lower cloth, with a sacred thread and beads visible at the neck, and a white vibhuti line on his forehead. His hair is tied in a knot at the back. Hanging aerial roots drape from the branches above, and a small painted red and purple flower decorates the platform in front of him. Sandy ground and a low white wall are visible behind.2011-01-21June 13 20132013-06-13 +3 copiesMarch 05 20132013-03-05A man stands barefoot on a low stone platform beside a large banyan tree with many aerial roots, leaning his head against the trunk with eyes closed in a meditative posture.
