A photograph of a bare-chested man in a rust-red shawl bowing low with his head pressed toward a dark stone base beneath a silver crown-like ornament. He wears long dark hair wrapped with a band of rudraksha beads, a gold earring, multiple rudraksha malas across his chest and an upper arm, and white ash marks on his shoulder. Yellow and white marigold garlands with red flowers sit in the foreground. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ornate gold earring are the cues for the bowing man, who is shown in devotion before a murti.

The person wears a gold hoop earring and a rust-brown and gold-bordered garment bare over the shoulder, and a long garland of red roses, white jasmine-type flowers, green leaves and yellow roses hangs from the neck. A hand rests on the stone, and a brass ceremonial staff or lamp stand with a fluted base is visible at the lower centre. Only one physical person is visible.2017-09-02A photograph of a man bowing forward with his head pressed against a dark grey stone carved with floral and scroll reliefs. He wears a deep brown-red turban with a diamond-studded ornament, a brown-red shawl over bare shoulders, a brown-red dhoti with gold border, gold bangles on his arm, and a long garland of yellow and white flowers with red roses and green leaves. A small gold-framed shrine with flowers sits in the background, and a brass lamp stands at the upper left. Nothing visible confirms a specific identity, so the person is described by role as a devotee at worship.2016-12-12January 03 20162016-01-03A photograph of a man with matted dreadlocks wrapped under a rudraksha band, pressing his forehead and right hand against a dark polished shivalinga. He wears a rust-orange cloth over his shoulder, a leopard-print lower garment, rudraksha malas on his arms and chest, and white sacred ash on his arms and face. Behind him are garlands of yellow, white and red flowers and draped silk cloths in pink and striped colours. The posture suggests devotional worship at a Shiva shrine. a person is depicted kneeling in worship, shown by long dreadlocks, rudraksha malas and saffron-toned clothing, though his face is turned away.2018-02-13 +1 copiesFebruary 13 20182018-02-13A photograph of a figure with long dreadlocked black hair bending forward to press their forehead against a carved stone ledge or altar. The person wears a rust-orange draped garment with a gold-trimmed edge, a long garland of pink flowers over one shoulder, gold bangles and gold earrings. A rolled orange-red cloth sits on the stone ledge beside them, and a brass lamp stand with a small figure stands in the background. The gesture resembles obeisance at a temple shrine. a person: the long matted hair, saffron-orange garment and ornamental jewellery match the page's claim, though the face is largely hidden.2016-12-03
