December 31 20092009-12-31December 31 20092009-12-31A photograph of a temple-setting exchange. A bald older man in orange robes bends forward, holding a yellow fruit and a folded paper or money, offering them toward a seated man in orange robes with long dark hair, a red bindi and a dark rudraksha mala, who raises one hand in a gesture of speech. Behind them are brass lamps, a small brass bell, a kumkum box, and garlands of orange and purple flowers on a deity or altar display. Two younger men in orange stand at the left edge, one with a white forehead mark. A visible cues-based candidate appears in the seated man, with long hair, orange robes, rudraksha mala and a throne-like seat, so the appearance is a probable match; the bald offerer is a devotee.2010-07-15December 31 20092009-12-31January 13 20152015-01-13A photograph of a seated group of saffron-clad sannyasis on a stage with a red curtain and white drape behind them. On the right, a man in an orange turban and orange robe with a long rudraksha mala sits smiling, appearing to be a probable Swamiji candidate by his turban, long swept-back hair and rudraksha cues. Beside him, a bald man in orange robes with white forehead markings speaks into a microphone, and a seated man in a red-and-orange kurta wearing spectacles sits in the middle row with a man in white beside him. Chrome-framed chairs with red cushions line the stage.2010-01-30December 31 20092009-12-31May 27 20152015-05-27December 31 20092009-12-31December 31 20092009-12-31Three men in orange and saffron sannyasi robes sit on white cushioned chairs on a stage before a large painted backdrop of figures. On the left, a man with long unkempt hair and a full beard wears an orange robe and red shawl and rests a hand over his face. In the centre, a bald man with an orange tilak on his forehead wears an orange robe and wooden rudraksha mala. On the right, a bald man in rimless glasses wears an orange robe and a long rudraksha mala, seated with hands folded. A staff member in orange stands behind them.2016-05-20August 09 20072007-08-09
