Behind the throne are a gold trident and a rock-like painted backdrop with red and white floral decoration. A man in orange robes and a second man in orange with a garland hold a flame on a lamp before him, and a woman in orange sari sits at the right with hands folded. Brass lamps and flower vases stand on the altar, and offerings are arranged along the front. The figure matches the appearance cues for a person, seated in the role of guru receiving aarti.2009-07-07January 20 20142014-01-20 +1 copiesA seated figure in saffron-orange robes, wearing a saffron turban, a rudraksha mala and a long ceremonial garland of pink and white flowers, sits on an ornate gilded throne cushioned in red, with a lion-shaped armrest and a backdrop of colourful flower arrangements in rainbow bands. Two standing attendants in reddish-brown dhotis with gold borders and ritual sacred ash markings on their bodies stand to the left, one with a bare shaved head, facing the seated figure. Gold parasols with trident finials and silver tridents frame the throne, and a silver lamp stand with tiered oil lamps stands in front. Golden draping covers the platform and a bright green leafy canopy overhead. Two young people are partly visible at the right edge. The seated figure is described as Swamiji (probable) on the basis of the saffron robes, turban, rudraksha mala and ceremonial garland, though appearance alone is not conclusive.2015-07-09A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork and a leopard-print cushion on the seat, set against a backdrop of scattered red rose petals and pale floral wall art. The figure wears an orange-red turban, a rust-coloured draped robe with gold borders, a marigold and white flower garland, a beaded rudraksha-style necklace, gold armlets and bangles, and holds a long rope-like staff. A silver trident stands to the right, and purple flowers in wooden vases flank the throne. A gold canopy with fringed tassels hangs above. The figure is a probable Swamiji by visible cues: a turban, saffron-toned robes, rudraksha beads and ceremonial gold ornaments, seated on a throne. One physical person is present.2015-05-27
