A seated figure in a red-brown ochre robe and matching wrapped turban sits on a black metal-framed couch draped with a dark red cloth with gold borders. A long garland of red roses, white flowers and green leaves hangs from the shoulders, and a rudraksha mala with large beads crosses the chest. The figure holds a tall silver trident in the right hand and smiles with eyes closed. Behind is a framed print of a temple complex with a deity image, and at upper left a framed photograph of two people. Printed pedia.org at lower right. The scene looks like a domestic room with cream walls and wooden doors

Garlands of white jasmine, red, orange and yellow flowers hang around his neck and across his body, and rudraksha beads are visible at his chest. A white-and-red tilak marks his forehead. Behind him is a draped blue and purple sparkling backdrop strung with white flower garlands, with orange marigold garlands overhead and a zebra-print cushion and water bottle beside him. The setting appears to be a pada puja at a devotee's house, though the setting is not otherwise labeled. One person is visible.2014-06-26A smiling man with swept-back hair, a red bindi and white forehead markings sits on a dark leather sofa in front of floral curtains. He wears a rust-orange garment with a gold border, a gold necklace, and multiple rudraksha mala strands, and holds a silver trident in his right hand.2014-04-06A man stands beside a clear acrylic lectern on a stage with a deep red velvet curtain behind him. He wears a saffron-red turban with gold ornaments, a red-orange shawl draped over his bare shoulders, a long rudraksha mala with multiple strands, and a leopard-print cloth at his waist. He holds a tall silver trident (trishul) upright in his right hand and smiles slightly, with a small microphone headset visible. A sign-off photo credit reads 2020 Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam. Swamiji (probable): the saffron turban with gold ornaments, rudraksha mala and trident match the page's description of Paramahamsa Nithyananda, shown in person.2014-04-20December 08 20132013-12-08July 04 20142014-07-04 +1 copiesA photograph of a man seated on an ornate golden-and-brown throne with carved gold wing-like backrest. He wears a rust-orange turban with gold trim and a gold brooch, a rust-orange saffron-toned robe, and a long necklace of red flowers alternating with gold beads and bead strands. He holds a silver trident (trishul) raised in one hand and a small hand-held drum or ritual instrument in the other, smiling. Bangles and a ring are visible. The background shows a blurred temple-like scene with a golden deity murti at lower right. Visible cues including the turban, saffron-toned clothing, rudraksha-style gold-bead necklace and throne align with the Swamiji appearance candidate, so this is a probable in-person match.2013-12-08Indoor photograph of a seated man with closed eyes, wearing a dark maroon sleeveless garment, a long white and red flower garland, rudraksha beads, a copper armband and a white tilak on his forehead. He holds a tall silver trident, a trishul, upright with his right hand beside a brass plate of offerings and a small golden vessel. Behind him stands a standing attendant in orange robes. A cream wall, a wall switchboard and an orange cloth on a seat complete the scene.2014-07-01
