He wears a long rudraksha mala and a large gold pendant, with white vibhuti tilak on his forehead, and bare feet. Brass oil lamps with lit flames stand on either side, with red and yellow flower arrangements on red-draped platforms. To the left a young male devotee in orange robe with a shaved head and white tilak sits with hands folded in prayer. Painted temple pillars and trees form the background. Swamiji (probable) is the seated central figure, identified by his long swept-back hair, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and gold pendant.2012-10-07A photograph of a seated man on an ornate red velvet throne with a gold-covered backrest and gold lion-shaped armrests. He sits with palms pressed together in prayer at his chest, eyes closed, shirtless with an orange-saffron cloth wrapped on his lower body and draped over his shoulder, wearing a rudraksha mala and a gold pendant. A horizontal white mark is on his forehead. Two lit brass oil lamps stand on either side, with red and yellow artificial flower arrangements nearby and a pile of papers on the throne platform. The backdrop shows a painted forest scene with a tree and temple pillars. a person is seated in a devotional or satsang setting, with his saffron-orange clothing, rudraksha mala and gold pendant as visible cues.2012-10-08A photograph of a man seated cross-legged on an ornate red velvet throne with gold-painted lion armrests and a golden backrest topped by a trident. He sits with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed, bare-chested except for an orange-saffron shawl draped over his shoulders and orange-saffron dhoti, wearing a long gold pendant necklace and beaded mala. Oil lamps, red and yellow artificial flowers, and a painted tree backdrop with stone temple pillars surround him. Visible appearance cues include the saffron ceremonial clothing and ornate gold necklace, consistent with the page's a person reference, but identity is uncertain from appearance alone.2012-10-08May 24 20132013-05-24October 19 20122012-10-19April 06 20122012-04-06A man seated cross-legged on a brown leather throne-style chair with carved wooden armrests, eyes closed, palms pressed together in namaskar at chest level. He wears an orange-red shawl over bare shoulders, orange-red dhoti with a yellow border, a long beaded rudraksha-style mala of brown beads around his neck, and a small dark bindi on his forehead. A small microphone clips near his face. Behind him a large screen shows blurred warm and green imagery of a temple. Swamiji (probable): the orange robes, long swept-back hair and rudraksha mala are visible cues, and he is seated in a presiding position, so this is a probable in-person identification based on appearance and setting.2014-11-09
