Several people stand with hands pressed in anjali mudra at lower left and in the background, and orange and red draped cloth hangs behind. The man in the turban has a tilak on his forehead and is bare-armed in the blue garment; the blessing gesture suggests darshan.2012-04-20April 18 20122012-04-18Photograph of a smiling man in an orange-brown turban with gold stripes, a dark orange-brown robe, a red and white flower garland and a long gold necklace with rudraksha beads, raising his right hand in greeting as he walks through a hall. A young man in a striped white shirt in the foreground presses his palms together in namaste. Behind them, other people in white and dark clothing stand in a crowd near a red curtain and a decorated shrine-like backdrop. The man in the turban shows distinctive ceremonial adornments and orange robes; the page identifies him as Swamiji, and his appearance is consistent with that, so this is a probable candidate. The photo shows a satsang-style gathering.2013-07-05April 20 20122012-04-20April 21 20122012-04-21December 02 20112011-12-02A smiling man in an orange turban and an orange-and-blue sash over a blue garment stands in a hall, wearing a long ornate silver bead necklace, silver armlets and bracelets, and a red bindi. He extends his right arm toward a woman in a white top with a purple patterned shawl, who bows with palms pressed together, and another devotee in white stands nearby. On the right, a man in an orange robe with white markings on his body stands partly visible. Behind them, a decorated shrine with orange and gold decorations is visible. The man in the turban shows the appearance of a probable Swamiji (orange turban, ornate silver necklace, sash and blue garment), so the identity is only appearance-based.2011-12-02A photograph of a ceremonial blessing in a bright hall with pink walls and orange banners. A smiling man in a cream turban, bare-chested with a white dhoti and orange-gold border, wears multiple rudraksha malas and gold ornaments on his neck and arm, and rests his hand on the head of an older man with grey hair who bows with palms pressed together. Another grey-haired man in white kurta and a bald man in a blue shirt stand beside them, and a monk in an orange robe with a plate of offerings appears at right, with a crowd of people behind. A purple logo appears at upper left and a copyright notice at right. The bearded figure in the turban has adornments and clothing that are distinctive, and the page indicates Swamiji was at this event, so this appearance-based candidate is labelled a probable Swamiji blessing a devotee.2012-04-15February 17 20112011-02-17 +1 copies
