A standing figure in a rust-brown dhoti and wrap with a gold waist belt and gold armlets places a hand on the head of a man in cream embroidered kurta with a red-and-white garland, who presses his palms together with a bindi-marked woman in green and gold beside him. A woman in orange sari and onlookers watch; the setting has a red carpet, a gold-covered stand with scattered flowers and an ornate blue and orange temple-style backdrop. The figure's appearance is consistent with the page's claim but cues are only partial, so the identity is uncertain and the figure is described by role as a presiding figure blessing a couple.

Behind, a woman in a rust sari with gold border presses her palms together, and several girls and women in saris and dresses stand watching. A painted deity figure on a colourful temple-style backdrop is visible at right. The standing figure has long swept-back hair, a crown-like tilak mark, and ceremonial dress consistent with the page's identification, a probable Swamiji appearance-based match.2013-09-15 +1 copiesSeptember 15 20132013-09-15 +1 copiesSeptember 16 20132013-09-16September 16 20132013-09-16September 15 20132013-09-15 +1 copiesA photo of an indoor ceremony in a temple-style hall with painted deity panels behind.

A person in a rust-red dhoti-style garment with a gold waist belt and a pink-and-white flower garland stands on a raised platform, placing one hand on the head of a bride. The bride, in a blue and gold silk sari with bangles and a red bindi, presses her palms together with eyes closed. Beside her, a groom in a cream embroidered silk kurta with a red flower garland bows with folded hands, his forehead marked with turmeric paste. Several onlookers stand behind them. The standing figure is a blessing officiant; the appearance is not clearly enough to attribute to any named person, so the role alone is given.2013-09-15 +1 copiesSeptember 16 20132013-09-16
