A photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes with a long gold ceremonial necklace and a red bindi on his forehead, sitting upright beside a tall golden staff in a large crowded hall. Behind him, many devotees sit in white and saffron clothes, several wearing garlands of yellow and white flowers; a woman in a brown-and-gold sari sits with hands folded, and a man in white kneels near a red box with small oil lamps and flower petals on a mat in front. The mood is a devotional assembly or darshan. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears saffron robes, a long ornate gold necklace and long swept-back hair, consistent with the page's Swamiji attribution.2008-12-26December 26 20082008-12-26September 24 20122012-09-24A photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes, cross-legged with hands resting in his lap, in a hall with seated devotees behind him. He has long dark hair, a white vertical tilak and a red dot on his forehead, and wears layered rudraksha malas with a gold pendant. Behind him a woman in white clothing with a beaded mala and several men sit on the floor, one smiling in glasses.

Behind him are blurred garlands and colourful decorations, and a partly visible person in white stands at the right edge.
