He wears a rust-red saffron wrap draped over bare shoulders, with multiple strands of rudraksha beads and a long ornate gold-bead necklace, plus gold-and-beaded bracelets on his wrist and upper arm. A small gold earring is visible. The background shows a salmon-pink wall and a blurred person at the right edge. The distinctive long hair, saffron wrap, rudraksha malas and gold necklace are compatible with the page's Swamiji cues, so this is a probable identification of Swamiji in person, described by appearance only.2013-05-18A photograph of a man standing indoors in a corridor with orange-red walls and a red-and-white painted pillar. He wears a rust-orange dhoti-style cloth draped over his bare chest, a heavy gold necklace of large beads with a rope-like chain, a gold armlet on his upper arm, gold earrings, a red bindi and white markings on his forehead, and has swept-back dark hair. He gazes upward and to the side. Blurred figures in orange and maroon robes stand around him. A small blue sign is on the wall and a flame glows at the bottom edge of the frame.2013-05-28Photograph of a ceremonial event indoors. A central figure in a rust-orange wrap and a long orange-beaded garland with large gold beads and a silver serpent pendant raises one hand to his forehead in a gesture of reverence. His hair is long and swept back, with a red bindi and white tilak marks. Behind him, a man in orange with a white tilak presses his palms together, and young boys in orange robes with white headbands stand near a drum with a red cloth draped over it. On the left, brass vessels and a kalasha-style pot sit on a table beside a lit oil lamp. A painting of a blue-skinned deity seated with a trident hangs on the orange wall. The appearance-based cues for the central figure are long swept-back hair and orange ornate garlands, and the page marks him as present, so this is a person in a standing reverent pose at a satsang-style gathering.2013-05-13February 26 20132013-02-26 +1 copiesMay 26 20132013-05-26 +1 copiesJanuary 17 20132013-01-17A photograph of a shaved-headed man in a rust-orange cloth wrap, looking upward with a white horizontal band and red dot on his forehead. He wears a long necklace of large gold beads and a gold chain, and a small gold earring. Behind him, a second person in a maroon garment with gold border stands in a doorway. A brass vessel is visible at the lower left. The setting is an orange-walled room with a blue sign on the wall. A candidate matching a person's presentation appears in person, though appearance cues are limited to ornamentation and clothing, so identity remains uncertain.2013-03-06May 27 20132013-05-27February 25 20132013-02-25
