Stage photograph of a large event hall with a projected temple-hall backdrop of carved stone pillars and a concentric-circle painted ceiling. In the centre, a seated figure in a saffron-orange robe and red-orange lower garment sits in meditation pose on a gilded golden throne with a decorative ornate backrest, flanked by carved golden lion-like figures and a ceremonial staff. Beams of stage light stream down. Two small silhouetted heads appear in the audience area at the bottom edge. The figure appears to be a projected or video image of a seated teacher, shown with a rudraksha mala and a raised mudra hand. Watermarked archive image with partial credit overlay.

December 17 20172017-12-17Stage photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne (peetha) with carved lion figures at its sides, set before a large backdrop printed with a temple hall of stone pillars and colourful concentric-patterned ceiling. The seated figure wears saffron-orange robes, a rudraksha mala, and has long hair; the appearance matches the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable Swamiji depiction on the throne. A ritual staff stands to the left of the throne, and stage lights stream down from above. No other people are visible in the frame.2017-12-17December 17 20172017-12-17December 17 20172017-12-17December 17 20172017-12-17December 17 20172017-12-17December 17 20172017-12-17A photograph of a stage set resembling a stone temple hall, with carved pillars and a painted ceiling of concentric coloured circles. Centred on a raised golden throne with ornate carved backrest, a seated man in orange-red robes, a rudraksha mala around his neck and a tilak on his forehead, sits cross-legged with hands resting on his lap. A tall golden staff with a trident-like top stands beside the throne, and a pair of carved lion figures flank the seat. Stage lights stream down and fog softens the scene; a few audience silhouettes sit at the bottom edge.2017-12-17December 17 20172017-12-17December 17 20172017-12-17A photograph of a stage set with a seated figure on an ornate golden throne, or peetha, in the centre. The figure wears a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl, long dark hair, and a rudraksha mala with a ceremonial gold necklace, which are the cues for a probable Swamiji. The throne has an arched golden backrest and carved lion-like armrests. Beside it stand a trident-topped staff and a tall decorative stand. Behind them, a temple-style hall with carved stone pillars, painted blue and red ceiling panels and bright yellow and blue stage lights. No other physical people are visible.2017-12-17December 17 20172017-12-17
