A photograph of a ceremony on a gold-trimmed raised seat decorated with marigold and multicolored garlands. A long-haired man in a red robe and gold necklace stands on the dais, smiling, and reaches down toward a woman in cream traditional dress with a long braid who bends forward with a white paper in her hands. Brass oil lamps stand on either side and a trident hangs on the backdrop of painted blue mountains. A man in orange robes stands at the right edge holding papers. The wall-mounted trident and lamps suggest a temple setting.

A photograph of a ceremonial stage in a hall at a KAILASA event. A long-haired man in a red dhoti and red shawl, wearing a gold-beaded garland and a rudraksha-style necklace, stands on a gold-and-red throne (peetha) decorated with marigold and multicoloured flower garlands, smiling and raising one hand. Swamiji (probable) by appearance cues: swept-back long hair, red robes, ceremonial necklace and presence on the throne. In front, a woman in a cream and gold silk sari with flowers in her hair bows deeply, touching her forehead to the throne's edge while holding a folded white cloth. A gold trident stands behind her beside brass oil lamps. To the right, two men stand: one in white clothes with a red shawl, and one in saffron-orange robes, both smiling and holding white gift bags. A blue painted backdrop with rocky shapes and string lights fills the background.2010-12-22December 22 20102010-12-22December 22 20102010-12-22December 22 20102010-12-22December 22 20102010-12-22December 22 20102010-12-22December 22 20102010-12-22December 22 20102010-12-22A stage event before a blue and tan painted mountain backdrop with brass lamps and a gold-and-flower-decorated peetha throne. A standing man in a red turban, red sleeveless top and red dhoti, wearing a multi-strand orange-and-white flower garland, smiles and hands a folded paper to a kneeling devotee in cream and white ceremonial dress with a long braid. The devotee bends forward, hands raised in reverence, beside a trident and a bird-topped lamp stand.

A long-haired man in a red robe and red cloth, wearing a gold-beaded necklace, stands on the throne's cushion smiling while another man in white dhoti and shirt clasps his hands. To the right a man in saffron-orange robe holds a white gift box, and a man in red kurta stands beside him. A devotee in gold-brown clothing bows low at the base of the throne. Brass oil lamps and a trident stand nearby. Strong sentiment of a birthday felicitation with kalasha-style decoration and a padapuja-like honour. Visible people: about five.2010-12-22December 22 20102010-12-22
