A stage event where a man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban places a long white and red flower garland around the neck of an older man wearing a white dhoti-style outfit and a gold-bordered red shawl. Beside them, another saffron-robed figure holds a brass plate with offerings. A man in a white shirt smiles nearby, and a brass lamp with a flame stands at the right edge. A large backdrop shows a smiling man in an orange turban, labelled as a portrait, behind the stage.2010-09-20March 30 20122012-03-30July 19 20152015-07-19A photograph of a ceremony in a red-curtained hall. A bare-chested figure with long swept-back dark hair, wearing an orange cloth over the shoulder, a garland of yellow-green citrus fruits and gold earrings, smiles as he places both hands on the head of a man in an orange turban and white kurta with an orange shawl. The man wears glasses and a rudraksha mala and has a name badge on his chest. Behind them an elderly man in white and other seated people sit on the floor. The long-haired figure's appearance and adornments are consistent with the a person candidate, but identity is uncertain.2012-07-22January 03 20162016-01-03October 17 20102010-10-17December 30 20072007-12-30March 30 20122012-03-30A photograph of a seated figure on a gilded throne with red cushions, with long dark hair, a rudraksha mala and orange-saffron robe, smiling as he receives an offering from a devotee in an orange kurta bent low before him. The devotee holds a small silver vessel and a brass plate, and wears a gold necklace and a white dhoti with a gold border. Behind them, women in white and red stand near green potted plants beside a red backdrop. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a rudraksha mala. The scene suggests a darshan or padapuja offering.2016-05-06A seated man in an orange saffron robe and a large pink rose garland sits on a red-cushioned throne with an ornate gilded backrest. A devotee in a white shirt leans in and touches the seated man's forehead with his hand, while a shaved-headed attendant in white with an orange shawl stands at left. A stone carved pillar and a red metal gate are behind them, and rudraksha beads hang on the robe. Three people are visible in the scene.2010-08-10 +1 copiesA photograph of a ceremonial garlanding on a decorated stage. A man with a topknot and bare upper body, wearing an orange dhoti, lifts a long garland of yellow, pink, red and white flowers over a seated person in an orange robe with a green-and-white flower garland and a beaded necklace.

A young man in white dhoti and an orange-red beaded necklace stands at left, an elderly man in white clothing sits partly visible, and another man in orange clothing stands at centre.
