A man in a white shirt and dark trousers bends forward, holding out a small orange fruit, while a young boy in a yellow outfit kneels beside him. Several women in saris, one in green and one in orange, stand in the background. This appears to be a darshan moment where devotees offer fruit to the seated figure; the seated figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji (probable), identified by the turban, garland, orange wrap and throne cues.2015-10-25October 26 20102010-10-26September 06 20152015-09-06Annadhan in 20132013-01-01 +1 copiesA photograph of a satsang or ceremonial gathering on a stage draped in orange and red fabric.

Beside him a standing man in orange with a rudraksha mala holds a gold kalasha-style vessel, and behind them a smiling man in orange and a rudraksha necklace stands near a gold-trimmed throne with a red velvet cushion. A man in white kneels at the left edge and a metal railing and gold lion-shaped ornament frame the scene. The seated figure wears distinctive ceremonial cues, a rudraksha crown and multiple malas, but his identity is uncertain from appearance alone.2012-07-23September 15 20152015-09-15 +1 copiesPhotograph of a stage before a deep red velvet drape. In the centre, a man in orange robes and a red-orange shawl, with long dark hair, a gold necklace and beaded malas, sits on an ornate gold throne flanked by golden lion figures; a microphone stands in front of him.

To the right, a bald man in an orange robe sits in a white armchair. The stage floor is covered with patterned rugs and reflects the lights.2013-02-03 +1 copies
