A man seated on the gilded throne wears a red turban, reddish-orange robe and gold necklace, smiling and extending his hand toward a kneeling devotee. Standing behind him, a man in white dhoti with rudraksha mala holds a bell-like object. A man in blue kurta kneels with folded hands holding a red object, and a man in white kurta kneels with palms pressed together in namaste. Other people and a golden trident are visible at the edges. The seated figure's features are not clearly enough visible to confirm identity, so this is a seated devotee-receiving-blessing scene.2015-09-12April 10 20162016-04-10July 31 20152015-07-31March 28 20162016-03-28A photograph of a ceremonial stage with a man in a saffron-orange turban and saffron garments seated on an ornate golden throne with brown leather cushioning, adorned with a gold-and-white beaded necklace.

Named portraits are not visible. Five people are visible.2015-09-11A seated figure in an orange-red saffron robe and matching red turban sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a carved gold back and red cushions, a rudraksha-style beaded mala and a large garland around the neck, eyes closed, hands resting open on the armrests. Two men in white shirts and white dhotis stand nearby: one at left bends forward toward the throne, the other at right, with palms pressed together in namaste, is accompanied by a younger man in white. Red curtains, a gold lamp stand and a gold chariot-like carved panel frame the scene on a red-carpeted stage. Several people in white attire attend the seated figure, consistent with a devotional gathering.2015-11-22A photograph of a ceremonial moment on a stage with gold-ornate decor. A seated figure in a golden throne with a gold lion-shaped armrest wears a red turban, maroon garment, and gold necklace, while another person leans in to touch that figure's head. Behind them, a standing man in white dhoti and shawl wears a rudraksha mala and gold pendant, and a golden trident and brass lamp stand nearby. In the foreground, a man in a blue kurta kneels with hands folded, and a man in white kurta kneels at right, hands in anjali. Golden deity murti and garlands decorate the background, with an orange cloth draped over a table at left.2015-09-12A seated figure in a saffron-orange robe and matching orange turban sits on an ornate golden throne with a tall gilded back before dark red drapes. He wears a long layered rudraksha-style mala and a gold ceremonial necklace, and one hand is extended. Around him, devotees in white dhotis and saris with gold borders bow and attend: a man in white with a gold-bordered dhoti rests a hand on the head of a bowing person in white, and a woman in a white sari holds up a small paper, while others in orange garments stand nearby. A brass lamp stands at the left and a gold-edged dais sits below the throne. The appearance matches the a person cues of saffron clothing, turban and mala on the throne, so the seated figure is a person in person.2015-11-22
