In the centre, a person with long dark hair wears an orange-and-red garment, a large rudraksha mala, a gold necklace and gold bangles, with palms pressed together in namaste. Beside them, a man in a white shirt and white dhoti, wearing a flower garland, also has palms joined. A bare-chested man in a white dhoti bows over a black stone Nandi or shivalinga-style image with white flowers and a yellow-and-red cloth tied around it. Other devotees in white shirts and saffron robes surround them, and a photographer with a camera stands at the left edge.2014-06-21 +1 copiesJune 24 20142014-06-24 +2 copiesDecember 29 20102010-12-29August 17 20122012-08-17 +1 copiesOutdoor photograph at a temple courtyard with a tall pale brick wall behind. In the foreground, a bare-chested man with long dark hair and an orange-red cloth wrapped at the waist stands with palms pressed together in prayer, bowing over a worn grey stone structure. He wears a gold necklace and gold armbands. Around him, several saffron-robed sannyasis stand, one on the left holding a small silver vessel and wearing a rudraksha mala. Behind them a large crowd of men in white shirts and white dhotis, plus women in orange and white saris, stands with hands folded in devotion. A thatched bamboo shelter and a pink temple building appear in the background.2012-08-17 +1 copiesApril 14 20182018-04-14April 14 20182018-04-14Outdoor temple procession beneath a large banyan tree with hanging aerial roots. A bearded man in a maroon dhoti and a garland of white and pink flowers stands centre-left, hands folded, beneath a decorated ceremonial parasol with a colourful fringe. Behind him a figure in a white dhoti and shawl holds a parasol and hands together. Several men in saffron-orange dhotis carry brass plates of flowers and offerings, and a white-clad man holds a long rod. Devotees in white and orange stand along the path. On the right, a large gold-and-black deity murti adorned with flower garlands stands beside a black cobra-shaped stone and a red-stone base scattered with petals. Lamps and a saffron flag are visible behind the group.2016-12-14May 08 20182018-05-08December 29 20102010-12-29A seated figure in an orange-red turban with a feather-like crest, wearing a white and red flower garland and a gold ceremonial necklace over orange-saffron robes, smiles while receiving an offering from a brass-lidded box held before him. Standing beside him, a man in a white shirt and rudraksha mala presses his palms together in greeting, while a shaved-headed priest in orange robes and a gold necklace stands nearby. Another man in white ritual clothes with a rudraksha mala holds his hands together, and more people are blurred in the background near stone pillars and a golden throne at right. The appearance-based label of the seated figure is Swamiji (probable), based on his orange turban, saffron robes, garlands and gold ornaments, though his identity is not certain.2012-05-12
