A dim, close-up photograph of a crowd pressing around a central figure wrapped in orange and saffron cloth. A large pale-pink shawl sweeps diagonally across the frame, lit from the upper left. Dark red robes on the left and orange garments on the right frame the scene. The central person has dark hair visible beneath a golden-trimmed orange wrap, and a hand reaches in from the top edge. Orange and red clothing dominates the shadowy, crowded space.2013-02-12A photograph inside a dimly lit tent-like hall with deep red drapes. A bald, bare-chested man wearing a red-orange shawl with a gold border and a heavy rudraksha mala is bending forward toward an elderly bearded sadhu in an orange turban and reddish-orange robe, who is seated on the floor and reaching out with folded hands holding a folded cloth. Another woman in an orange-red turban and gold-bordered wrap sits on the left beside an ornate brown leather throne-like seat, and a man in the background watches. Behind them are a silver-framed deity murti with an ornate silver backdrop, a silver-topped low table with carved trim on the right, and a wall lamp. The bald man's wrists show gold and beaded bangles and he has a gold necklace. Identity of the bald man is not established from appearance cues alone.2015-09-11January 22 20142014-01-22September 11 20152015-09-11August 22 20062006-08-22September 20 20152015-09-20September 20 20152015-09-202015-July-302015-07-30A hotel room with cream walls, recessed ceiling lights and a red patterned carpet.

In the background a framed portrait labelled "Paramahamsa Nithyananda" shows a figure in orange, and a second robed person stands near the doorway.

Behind them stand several people in matching orange-red robes and garlands, and the seated figure sits on an ornate silver-embossed throne. Probable Swamiji (long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces and rudraksha malas, orange robe) is blessing the devotee in what appears to be a ritual or satsang setting. Visible people: about six or more in the scene.2013-03-10
