Photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne (peetha) with a gold-and-red backrest, draped in white flowers and red garlands. The central figure wears a cream turban with a red bindi, a white garment, gold and beaded necklaces, and smiles. Two devotees in white kneel beside the throne: a man in a long white kurta with his back to the camera and a woman in a white sari with gold border and a long braid, both bowing toward the seated figure. Red and orange flower garlands decorate the throne base, and fruit and a flower vase sit at the right edge.

A photograph of a man in a cream turban and light garland sitting centrally on a red-draped seat before an ornate gold throne backed with floral decoration, smiling broadly. Two people in white ritual clothes kneel close beside him: a man with his back to the camera in a white dhoti and shirt, and a woman with a long black braid in a white sari with a gold-bordered pallu, each leaning in toward him. Behind the throne, a wall of white flower garlands is framed with red, green and purple decorative panels, with red and orange marigold garlands on the seat and orange flower arrangements at the sides. The setting appears to be a formal darshan or ceremonial reception.2009-06-22A photograph of a seated man in a white turban, white dhoti with gold border and white kurta, wearing a white flower garland and gold necklace, centred before an ornate gold throne framed by white flower walls with red garlands.
