A photograph of a discourse in a hall with a grey draped backdrop. A seated figure in red-orange robes and a red-beaded mala sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne decorated with a multicoloured flower garland, one hand raised in a teaching gesture, with a microphone stand beside him. To the left stands a gilded lion-shaped carriage bearing a red-robed standing figure garlanded with yellow and green flowers. A large group of seated devotees, mostly men in white dhotis and shirts and a few in orange, faces the stage from the front, with a camera on a tripod at right and a hanging orange-and-red banner at upper right. Roughly thirty people are visible.

A man with long dark hair, wearing a rudraksha mala and a flower garland in pink and white, sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with multicoloured flowers. A younger attendant in orange robes and a rudraksha mala sits to the left of the throne. Seated devotees in white clothes, several with their backs to the camera, face the throne on the floor. Floor standing air conditioners line the back wall. The throned figure's appearance is consistent with the page's a person reference but is not certain, so he is described by role as the seated teacher on the throne.2013-05-15A satsang discourse in a hall with a dark grey draped backdrop and white-and-gold valance at the top. On a raised stage, a figure in orange robes sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a gold-carved back, holding a paper, with a microphone stand before them and a standing fan at right. Dozens of seated devotees face the stage with their backs to the camera, mostly in white and cream clothing, with some in yellow, red and orange; many women have braided hair. A video camera on a tripod is visible at left. The seated figure on the throne is an appearance-based candidate who wears orange robes and has swept-back dark hair, consistent with a person probable match, but the figure is small and distant so appearance is uncertain.2010-10-19Photograph of a satsang hall where a seated teacher in orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions on a raised stage, speaking to a large audience. Rows of devotees sit cross-legged on red and patterned mats, mostly in white clothing, several with shaved heads. Hanging banners with orange tassels and multicolour patterns frame the stage, and a pedestal fan, tripod cameras and monitors stand near the platform. The teacher's appearance (long hair, orange robe, gold throne) matches the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable Swamiji in person giving a discourse. Visible crowd appears to be roughly 20 to 30 people.2011-01-21
