A photograph of an ornate gold-leaf throne with a carved backrest, its seat covered in leopard-print fabric. A bearded man with long dark hair wrapped up on his head and a white tilak on his forehead sits on the throne, hands joined in namaste, wearing rudraksha malas, bracelets and an orange-red shawl over his bare upper body. Two brass bells hang on chains above, a brass lamp with a lit wick and a gold lion sculpture sit at the front, with a second lion at the side. Strings of small lights glow in the background.

March 25 20182018-03-25A photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange clothing and a tall wrapped dark turban, with a white forehead mark, rudraksha mala beads around his neck and wrists, and palms pressed together in namaste with eyes closed. He sits on an ornate gold throne with leopard-print cushions, beside a gilded lion figure. Hanging brass bells and small oil lamps with lit wicks, decorated with green threads, hang from chains above. A person's hand holding a lit lamp appears at the lower right edge. The seated figure shows distinctive saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and a turban, consistent with the probable Swamiji (probable) candidate in this satsang setting; the presence of a throne and dress alone do not confirm identity.2018-03-25March 25 20182018-03-25March 25 20182018-03-25March 25 20182018-03-25March 25 20182018-03-25Photograph of an ornate gold-leaf throne draped with leopard-print cushions, flanked by a gilded lion sculpture in the foreground.

A bearded man with long dark hair piled high sits on the throne wearing a rust-red shawl over his bare shoulders and a rudraksha mala, with a vertical tilak on his forehead. Brass oil lamps with lit wicks sit on the armrest and in front of a lion statue, and a steel vessel stands at left. The man appears to be an appearance-based Swamiji (probable) seated on the throne, with the cues being the long swept-back hair, the rudraksha mala, and the rust-red shawl. No other people are visible.2018-03-25A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold-covered throne with a leopard-print cushion, flanked by golden lion sculptures.

In front of the throne stands a large bronze lion sculpture and a brass lamp on a stand, with hanging brass bells and oil lamps suspended from above, decorated with green and blue threads. A tray of flowers and offerings is visible at the lower right. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne with distinctive long hair, rudraksha and orange robe.2018-03-25Photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne upholstered in leopard-print fabric, flanked by gilded lion sculptures and hanging brass bells and oil lamps on chains with green threads. He wears a dark wrapped turban, a rudraksha mala, and an orange-red shawl over bare shoulders, with a white tilak on his forehead. His hands rest on the lion armrest, and he looks to the side in a seated, composed posture. The throne is decorated with gold relief carvings. The man's appearance matches the page's reference to a person only loosely, so identity remains uncertain and he is described by role as a seated figure on a throne.2018-03-25
