A man in saffron-orange robes and a matching orange turban with a blue flower stands on a stage with both arms raised above his head, palms open, smiling. He wears layered bangles, a rudraksha-style bead mala, a red bindi, and a blue-and-gold striped sash at the waist. Behind him is a decorated murti of a deity with flute, pearl and jewelled garlands, flanked by two tall vases of peacock feathers, and a large ornate yellow-and-black serpent-hooded canopy set over a stepped platform. A dark blue curtain forms the backdrop on the left. Printed copyright text appears in the lower right corner.

He wears a pale peach-cream dhoti-style garment with a matching draped shawl edged in gold, a gold turban, a red tilak mark on his forehead, and a long multi-strand necklace of golden-brown beads. Behind him are a maroon curtain and dark curtain, a potted plant, and a wooden stand; a white tower cooler and studio light stand at left. Additional rugs lie on the floor in front. The figure appears to be a devotee or sannyasi in ceremonial clothing, with the setting.2011-11-20October 21 20112011-10-21August 17 20112011-08-17October 19 20112011-10-19October 19 20122012-10-19May 19 20132013-05-19September 25 20112011-09-25A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a white cloth against a blue backdrop. He wears an orange turban with a red bindi on his forehead, long dark hair falling past his shoulders, and a long mala of brown rudraksha beads. His right hand is raised, palm outward, in a gesture of blessing, while his left hand rests on his knee. The image has a faint blue bird logo in the upper left corner. Probable Swamiji's appearance cues include the long hair, orange turban and saffron robes with rudraksha mala, but the identification is based on appearance only.2006-12-09 +2 copiesA smiling man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold-carved throne with a deep red velvet backrest and red tiger-striped cushions. He raises both arms wide, wearing rudraksha bracelets on his wrists and upper arms and a long rudraksha mala across his chest. A red tilaka mark is on his forehead. A gold-and-silver ceremonial staff stands beside the throne, with fruit and a water bottle on a small table at the right edge. White flower petals cover the floor in front. The page indicates a person at this event, and the seated figure's saffron robes, rudraksha malas and ornate throne match that description, so this is a person seated in a satsang setting.2012-04-14
