Photo of a man standing in profile on a raised golden platform before an ornate golden sun-shaped backdrop with fairy lights. He wears a leopard-print headwrap over long dark dreadlocks tied high, a rust-brown dhoti-style garment, a gold armband and bangles, and a garland of yellow marigolds, red roses, white flowers and green leaves. His palms are pressed together in a namaste gesture. Behind him is a leopard-print seat with golden lion-head armrests and gold-embossed base, decorated with yellow flower strands. Yellow draping cloth hangs overhead. Whether this is a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the identity is marked unsure.

He wears a leopard-print headwrap, has long dark hair hanging down his back, and is bare-chested with a rust-brown cloth wrapped at his waist. He wears a garland of green, white, yellow and pink flowers over his shoulder and bangles on his arm, and is smiling while looking to his left. A large golden statue of a figure stands at the left edge of the frame. The man's appearance with long hair, bare chest, garland and ceremonial adornments is consistent with a person in a ceremonial setting.2017-08-25 +1 copiesA photograph of a standing figure seen from the side, facing a large gilded sunburst-style backdrop with a golden lion-head decoration at the lower left. The figure has long dreadlocked hair and wears a leopard-print headwrap, a rust-brown garment, a heavy white and pink flower garland with a green cloth at the shoulder, and gold armlets. Their hands are folded in front of the chest. Strings of multicoloured fairy lights hang in the background, and a golden deity murti stands at the left edge. At the lower right a seated attendant in white with rudraksha malas watches. Swamiji (probable): the figure's long hair, flower garlands and ornate gold armlets are the cues, shown in a ceremonial setting, and the appearance is consistent with the page's claim.2017-08-25August 25 20172017-08-25A seated man sits on a leopard-print cushioned throne before a large gold sunburst backdrop with ornate fretwork and fairy lights.
