A large dark black stone sphere draped with a long garland of red, white, yellow and green flowers dominates the foreground. Behind it stand two men on a raised platform: the taller man in front wears an orange-brown cloth, a multi-strand gold necklace and a flower garland over his shoulder, with long dark hair and a decorated forehead. Beside him a shaved-headed man with a white marking on his upper arm and bare chest faces him, hands near the stone. Orange marigold garlands hang across the backdrop with striped drapery and a tall decorated pillar. Seated devotees in white clothes line the steps at left and right. A purported deity murti is not visible; the central focus is the sphere.

A large black polished stone lingam wrapped with a garland of red roses, white flowers, yellow marigolds and green leaves stands in the foreground of an outdoor ceremony. A man with long dark hair, a red tilak and a gold ornamental necklace with a garland of red and white flowers stands behind it in a brown-orange garment, appearing to attend the lingam. Beside him, a shaved-headed bare-chested priest with white sandal markings on his arms and chest wears an orange cloth and gold necklace. Orange marigold garlands and a white-and-red draped canopy decorate the stage, and seated devotees in white and red shawls sit on red steps behind. The man with long hair shows swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and garland cues consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, so the appearance is a probable in-person match.2013-07-01July 08 20132013-07-08July 01 20132013-07-01July 01 20132013-07-01July 01 20132013-07-01 +1 copiesJuly 01 20132013-07-01July 08 20132013-07-08July 01 20132013-07-01July 01 20132013-07-01June 10 20132013-06-10 +1 copiesJuly 01 20132013-07-01July 08 20132013-07-08
