In the centre, a man in a saffron-orange turban and orange robe, wearing a red flower garland and a multi-strand gold bead necklace, stands beside a tall silver oil lamp with a flame. Around him, men in white shirts and dhotis press close, one reaching forward with his hand, and an older man with glasses in the foreground watches. A grey-haired man in white stands at right, and a younger man in orange with long hair is at lower left. The scene reflects an opening or consecration gathering, though the image itself does not show the ceremony in detail.2009-11-30September 20 20152015-09-20A photograph inside a small room with pink walls and a window, showing a long-haired figure in orange robes and a white marigold-and-flower garland seated on an orange-covered couch. Scattered orange marigold petals and white flowers lie on a pink cloth. A man in white kneels and bows his head toward the seated figure's feet in a padapuja-style reverence. Beside them, a man in orange robes with a gold-toned necklace kneels holding a glass, and a younger man in orange with a mala stands and leans in. On the left, a man in white with an orange shawl and a rudraksha mala holds a small white object and looks sideways. A person in a checked shirt stands at the right edge, partly cropped.2008-06-09A photograph of a hall during a paduka puja sarva-darshan. A smiling man in saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala stands at centre, wearing a large garland of red, orange, purple, white and green flowers and a cream shawl. A man in white shirt and glasses, with hands pressed together in greeting, receives a blessing as another devotee in white dhoti touches the centre man's head with a shawl. On the right, a shaved-headed priest in orange holds a silver tray with fruit. Behind, a bare-headed devotee in white and a saffron-robed figure stand near a curtain and a framed portrait on the left wall. Several people are visible in the hall. The centre figure is a candidate for a person by appearance, but his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.2011-08-14April 22 20162016-04-22Photograph of a seated person in a thatched open pavilion giving energy darshan to a kneeling young man. The seated figure wears an orange saffron shawl over the shoulder, long swept-back dark hair, and a white flower garland with yellow and red blossoms; the hand is raised toward the young man's forehead. The kneeling young man wears a white shirt, a rudraksha mala, and has his eyes closed. Behind them a man in white dhoti and an orange shawl holds a camera, and a few more people in white stand at the edges, with a small crowd of onlookers visible on the far side of the pavilion.2006-12-10
