A seated man in a saffron-red robe and matching red turban sits on an ornate throne-like chair on a glossy gold-floored temple stage, hands folded in his lap, with a rudraksha mala draped over his chest. Behind him, a large golden Nandi bull statue stands beside a golden figure, and gold-framed deity shrines on either side are decorated with garlands of yellow and red flowers. Rows of brass oil lamps (deepams) line the front of the stage, and a microphone stand is visible at right. Lamps and string lights glow along the wooden lattice backdrop, with colourful striped canopies overhead.

December 02 20172017-12-02A seated man in a saffron-orange robe and matching orange turban sits cross-legged on a raised golden-floored stage, wearing a red-beaded rudraksha mala around his neck, with a microphone stand at his right. Behind him stands a large golden nandi bull and a silver-framed panel, flanked by gold-framed deity murtis draped with garlands of marigolds and multicoloured flowers. Rows of brass oil lamps line the stage edge and fill the foreground, and strings of lights and striped canopies frame the hall. The setting suggests a satsang or discourse before deity shrines.2017-12-02December 02 20172017-12-02December 02 20172017-12-02December 02 20172017-12-02December 02 20172017-12-02December 02 20172017-12-02December 02 20172017-12-02A photograph of a seated man on an ornate silver-framed throne on a golden stage, lit by strings of warm fairy lights. He wears a maroon turban, a rudraksha mala, and an orange-red cloth, with hands folded in his lap. A microphone stand stands beside him. Golden bull-shaped vahana and standing gold figures flank the stage, with garlands of yellow and orange flowers, brass oil lamps, and fruit offerings in front. Background deity figures appear behind a golden arch. Several gold deity murti are visible at the sides. The setting appears to be a festival puja stage for Karthigai Deepam. The seated man's appearance is consistent with the probable Swamiji cues of a maroon turban, rudraksha mala and orange-red clothing.2017-12-02December 02 20172017-12-02 +1 copiesA temple-style stage with red curtains and golden thrones decorated with marigold garlands. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes, red turban and rudraksha mala sits with palms pressed together in greeting at the centre, before a golden nandi and an ornate silver frame. A standing attendant in an orange dhoti offers puja near an oil lamp at left, and a deity murti in green and white with a crown sits on a throne at right. Brass lamps and marigold offerings sit on the platform. The central seated figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate given the saffron robes, turban and mala, though the page's identity claim cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.2017-11-11December 02 20172017-12-02
