A barefoot figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban, wearing a multicoloured flower garland, steps out with hands raised in greeting. Several men in white dhotis and white shirts stand behind, some with hands folded, one with a round badge on his chest. Dark trees line the horizon under a dusky sky.

August 17 20072007-08-17Night-time photograph outside a parked silver minivan with its side door open. A man in saffron-orange robes, an orange turban and a dark rudraksha mala smiles and holds his hands together in greeting as he steps forward. Behind him a man in a white shirt and white dhoti holds up a long white and red flower garland, while another in white holds a tray. Several men in white clothes stand nearby with hands folded in namaste, lit by floodlights and green foliage. Swamiji (probable): the saffron robes, orange turban and rudraksha mala are visible cues of his presentation, and the page identifies this event as involving him, so the orange-clad man is recorded as a probable in-person candidate.2010-01-09January 22 20102010-01-22January 23 20102010-01-23 +2 copiesA photograph of a street scene on a paved road beside parked silver cars under a cloudy sky. In the centre, a figure in a long saffron-orange robe and a matching orange turban, with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala, walks with palms pressed together in greeting. Around them, men in white shirts and white dhotis greet with folded hands and bowed heads; one man wears a yellow rosette. Palm trees and low white buildings line the road behind them. The figure has distinctive saffron clothing, long hair, and a mala, so the appearance-based candidate is a person, walking and greeting visitors on the road.2007-08-17May 16 20112011-05-16Outdoor evening arrival at a satsang venue. A person in a saffron-orange robe, orange head wrap and a dark rudraksha mala walks on a green carpet while men in white dhotis and shirts stand beside him, one offering a large pink and red flower garland and petals on the ground. A silver car with floral garlands stands behind, with a white-clad crowd, chairs and a stage with lights in the background. A man in a white dhoti and red shawl walks alongside. Several men with folded hands greet him. Trees and a green banner frame the scene.2010-01-10Night photograph outside beside a silver car with its side door open. A figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban, wearing a long white flower garland with a maroon bead strand, stands at the vehicle. A man in white shirt and white dhoti bends forward and places his hands on the garlanded figure's shoulders, while another man beside him holds a tray with flowers. Several men in white kurtas and dhotis stand behind with hands folded in anjali, and green-lit trees form the backdrop. The garlanded figure appears to be a sannyasi in saffron clothing rather than a clearly identifiable person; no appearance-based a person candidate is established with sufficient cues.2010-01-09 +1 copiesA photograph of a man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban walking along a dirt lane beside a silver Toyota sedan decorated with a white and red flower garland across its front.
