A photograph of a bearded man with long dark hair and a white-and-red tilak on his forehead, standing with eyes closed and palms pressed together in namaste before his chest. He wears a rust-brown robe draped over his shoulder, layered with brown and gold rudraksha-style malas, a large gold pendant, a yellow marigold garland, and gold bangles on his wrist and upper arm. Behind him is a red metal scaffold structure. The figure's appearance, with long swept hair, distinctive rudraksha malas, a ceremonial gold pendant and marigold garland, is a probable match for a person, though a clear identity cannot be confirmed from the photo alone.

He wears a long yellow marigold garland with a pink rose, rudraksha malas on his wrists and a gold bracelet, and a gold earring; a white-and-black vibhuti/tilak marks his brow. Behind him is an ornate silver-and-jewelled backdrop with red and green stones, and beneath him a tiger-striped orange cloth. A white curtain and red draping frame the left side. Appearance cues are consistent with a person in the seated position, with distinctive ceremonial garland, malas and jewelled throne backdrop, shown in a festival setting.2017-09-21 +1 copiesAugust 02 20172017-08-02 +1 copiesSeptember 21 20172017-09-21 +1 copiesAugust 02 20162016-08-02March 02 20182018-03-02A bearded man with eyes closed sits before a backdrop of yellow and red flowers, palms pressed together in namaste. He wears a tall dark turban with rudraksha beads, a red-brown saffron-toned cloth draped over bare shoulders, a red thread on his wrist, and heavy gold multi-strand necklaces with a large gold pendant. A red tilak marks his forehead. The page indicates Swamiji was present, and his appearance (long turban-style hair, rudraksha, ornate gold necklaces, saffron-toned cloth) is consistent with the Swamiji (probable) label, so this is a Swamiji (probable) in person, offering a devotional gesture during the event.2018-04-14 +1 copiesA man stands with his head bowed and palms pressed together in namaskar at chest level. He wears a rust-brown draped robe with a gold-bordered edge, tied at the waist with a gold sash, and a thick yellow marigold garland with a pink flower cluster hangs at his chest over gold beaded necklaces. Curly hair falls to his shoulders, and he wears gold earrings and a red thread on his wrist. Blurred colored lights and dark foliage surround him at what appears to be an outdoor evening event.2017-08-02September 21 20172017-09-21
