Outdoor photo at a temple courtyard with a red-and-orange sanctuary wall and a carved stone shrine. A man with long swept-back hair, wearing a maroon robe with gold trim and a long white and red flower garland with a rudraksha mala, sits on an ornate silver-framed seat with a tiger-striped cushion, smiling. Probable Swamiji (long swept-back hair, maroon robe, flower garland and rudraksha mala). Seated on the ground before him is a bearded man in a green vest over white clothes with an orange shawl, and a shaved-headed monk in saffron robes stands beside a child in a hooded pink jacket. Other saffron-clad sannyasis sit to the left, and a deity mural and marigold-decorated shrine appear behind.

January 22 20142014-01-22Outdoor photo at a temple courtyard with a silver-framed seat and marigold offerings. A man seated on the right in maroon-red robes with a white and red flower garland laughs warmly, sitting in front of a silver-framed throne-like seat. Around him, devotees in saffron-orange shawls and robes stand and sit, including a man in brown robes with a rudraksha mala and a woman in a grey hooded vest and saffron shawl smiling. A shaved-headed man in white with a saffron shawl sits cross-legged on the left. A trident is visible at the left edge and a red canopy is overhead, with a painted deity image on the wall to the right. The scene looks like a lighthearted satsang gathering. The seated man with the garland is identified only by his appearance and role.2014-01-22A photograph of a seated figure with long dark hair in a bun, wearing a red-maroon shawl over dark red robes and a red-and-white flower garland, receiving an orange cloth from a kneeling bearded man in a cream kurta and olive vest with an orange shawl. Around them, shaven-headed monks in orange and saffron robes, one with a rudraksha mala, stand and sit on a mosaic-tiled floor. The seated figure sits on a silver ornate throne-like chair with a zebra-striped cushion. The seated figure has long hair and a red-maroon shawl, but no unambiguous cues, so identity is unsure. Several devotees in orange stoles watch, and a bare-shouldered monk in orange and red looks down.2014-01-22January 22 20142014-01-22January 22 20142014-01-22January 22 20142014-01-22January 22 20142014-01-22January 22 20142014-01-22October 10 20172017-10-10A night-time photograph of a seated figure in a deep red-brown robe and multiple beaded rudraksha malas with gold ornaments, holding a long yellow-and-pink decorated staff, seated on an ornate red velvet throne with gold carved back.
