A seated figure in a saffron-orange robe over a red top sits on an ornate gilded throne with red patterned cushions, a red bindi on the forehead and long dark hair. A man in a white t-shirt and a beaded necklace bends forward with his hands near the seated figure's lap, apparently in an act of reverence. Behind them are a green leafy backdrop and a floral arrangement of purple orchids, pink and white flowers. A Swamiji (probable) label applies based on the saffron robe, long swept-back hair, and the gilded throne setting, so the seated figure is marked as a probable in-person candidate.2008-10-19A photograph of a seated man in an orange saffron robe with a dark hair knot and a gold ceremonial necklace placing both hands on the forehead of a kneeling man in a white kurta. The seated man sits on a red cushioned throne with gold carved armrests, and a tray of wrapped purple-and-silver sweets sits on a side table beside him. A gold-framed backdrop and a dark curtain fill the background. The seated man has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and gold beads, which is consistent with the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues, so he is presented as the initiating teacher giving a blessing, while the kneeling devotee receives it.2011-02-20A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange saffron robe seated on an ornate gold throne with red tiger-striped cushions, decorated with yellow and red flower garlands and a red kalasha-like arrangement of fruit at his side.

A man in a maroon shirt and grey trousers leans in and presses his palm to the seated man's forehead, while a bearded man in white and orange robes with a rudraksha mala stands at right. Red carpet and gold drapery form the backdrop. Appearance-based cues on the seated man (long swept-back hair, saffron robe, gold throne) are consistent with Swamiji (probable), and the page indicates he is present at this event, so this is an in_person candidate with a fairly strong match.2009-01-31August 30 20092009-08-30A photograph of an indoor stage event.
