Outdoor ritual scene in a courtyard beside a red-painted pillar. A figure seated cross-legged on a low wooden platform over a mat, back to the camera, wears a saffron-orange shawl over the shoulders and a rudraksha mala with a dark-beaded necklace, with hair tied up. Hands rest near a brass kalasha-style pot with handles set on a bed of ash or grey stone at the foreground. Behind, a seated crowd of about twenty people in white and pastel shirts sits on the ground facing the ritual. The swami-like figure's appearance matches the page's claimed presence, with orange shawl and rudraksha cues, so this is a person identification. Stone sculptures appear in the background.Outdoor photo of a seated man in an orange saffron robe and dark rudraksha mala, viewed from behind, sitting on an orange cushion on a paved courtyard. A brass kalasha-style vessel with a spout rests on the ground in the foreground beside a wooden platform. Facing him, a seated audience of roughly fifteen to twenty men wearing white shirts, white dhotis and some in plain shirts sits on mats in front of an orange wall with white-painted pillars and green plants. The setting suggests a guided meditation or satsang session. The seated figure has long dark hair pulled back, and his appearance is consistent with a possible a person candidate, though the rear view makes it uncertain.2011-02-20February 23 20112011-02-23November 13 20102010-11-13 +1 copiesNovember 14 20102010-11-14 +2 copiesA seated figure sits cross-legged on an orange cushion atop a low wooden platform, viewed from behind. The person wears a saffron-orange garment with maroon-red trim over the shoulder and waist, a dark beaded necklace, and hair tied in a high bun. A brass kalasha-style vessel with a spout sits at the lower right on the ground. Behind, a blurred crowd of seated and standing people in white and red clothing gathers in an open courtyard, with orange-painted walls and a palm-like plant at right. The scene resembles a satsang or outdoor ritual gathering. Appearance-based cues of a saffron-clad figure with a rudraksha-style necklace suggest a person, seated in the role of teacher before the assembly.April 03 20112011-04-03April 07 20112011-04-07A photograph of a man seated cross-legged on a low wooden platform in an outdoor courtyard, facing right with hands resting in his lap. He wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over his shoulders and a long orange garment, with a dark red-brown border, and a rudraksha mala around his neck. A small red bindi marks his forehead. In front of him is a brass kalasha-style vessel on a circular raised patch of gravel. Behind him stand dark stone figures and a red-orange wall, with green foliage above. A marigold-and-rose garland hangs on a red pillar at left. Two blurred people in white are seen from behind in the foreground.

In the foreground, a man with long dark hair and a black cord necklace wears a saffron-orange robe and sits cross-legged on an orange cushion facing a shallow circular pit lined with gravel, beside a brass pot. Woolen mats in a row lead from him toward a seated group of about eight men in white, cream, beige and dark clothing, sitting in meditation. Potted plants and a red pillar frame the setting. Based on the robe, long hair and seated posture, the central figure may be a person leading the practice; the image shows him in an orange robe, long hair, and a black mala-style necklace while seated before the pit.2011-02-05
