A stage event in a large hall. A man in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne at centre, with a garlanded deity backdrop behind him. In front of the stage, about ten people in white and yellow saris and white dhotis sit on an orange mat, some holding books or small items, while a young priest in white with a shaved head and horizontal tilak on the left speaks into a microphone. A large orange-draped table and a potted decoration sit at the right of the stage. The seated figure in orange could be a person, wearing saffron robes, a rudraksha mala and a sitting-throne position, though his face is too small to confirm; the other figures are devotees and priests.

Around the dais, devotees sit on mats: a row of men in white dhotis and orange shawls at left, and women in cream and yellow saris and a few in white, some holding small items, facing the throne. Oil lamps and brass vessels rest on the floor, and a white pedestal fan stands at right. The setting appears to be a satsang hall. The figure on the throne is a person candidate, identified by the saffron robe and rudraksha mala, though the appearance is only partly distinctive; the throne and white-clad devotees are not themselves identifying cues.2010-11-10October 21 20102010-10-21October 23 20102010-10-23October 26 20102010-10-26A seated figure in an orange robe and rudraksha mala sits on a red-cushioned golden throne on a raised stage, with a large backdrop of a temple gopuram and a deity murti. a person is seated centrally, wearing orange saffron clothing and a rudraksha mala.

Around him, a group of women and girls in white and cream saris with gold borders sit on orange cloth on the floor, some holding brass vessels and steel tumblers, with a woman in a red-and-green sari at left. A Swamiji (probable) figure is seated on the throne, identified by long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala. Brass lamps and garlands decorate the stage edges, and a colourful embroidered banner hangs in the background.2010-09-12A seated figure in orange robes and a long rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions in front of a large painted temple backdrop with pillars and deity figures. Devotees in white and cream clothes sit on the floor with hands joined in namaskar, some wearing green and yellow shawls. Brass plates with fruit and offerings rest on a rug before the throne. The scene resembles a satsang or darshan setting. The seated figure has long swept-back hair and saffron clothing with distinctive rudraksha adornments, which is consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, so the appearance-based label is Swamiji (probable).2010-10-20
