Stage photograph of a ceremonial darshan. On the right, a man seated on an ornate gilded throne with a leopard-skin cushion wears saffron-orange robes, a long gold-bead garland, bangles, and a golden crown, holding a staff; a trident stands beside him. On the left, a large deity murti dressed in green and pink garments with silver ornaments and a crown is adorned with red and white flower garlands. A blue and turquoise backdrop glows behind them, with a brass lamp and a standing fan at the edges. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure, given the saffron robes, crown, rudraksha-style gold beads and throne, appearing in person on stage.

A photograph of a stage setting with two figures side by side. On the left, a decorated deity murti is seated on a pedestal, dressed in green and pink silk with silver ornaments, a crown, and a garland of red, white and yellow flowers draped around it. On the right, a seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate golden throne with leopard-print cushions, wearing a gold crown, a yellow floral garland, bangles and a gold necklace, holding a long staff with a trident-topped finial. A rudraksha-style neck adornment is not clearly visible. Behind them is a large blue and red illuminated backdrop. An oil lamp stand and brass items sit near the murti. The figure on the throne may be a person based on attire and crown; the appearance is clear enough to indicate a probable match.2018-04-18April 18 20182018-04-18April 25 20182018-04-25 +1 copiesPhoto of a ceremonial stage event.
