A smiling man in saffron-red robes and a matching red turban sits cross-legged on a wooden seat draped with a tiger-striped cloth, raising his right palm in a blessing gesture. He wears a long necklace of golden beads and a red-and-gold sash, with gold bangles on both wrists. Behind him stand a green draped backdrop, lush potted plants and a golden sculpture of a reclining figure with small carved figures and bull statues. The vermilion bindi is visible on his forehead.2015-03-19March 19 20152015-03-19March 19 20152015-03-19A seated man in rust-red and saffron robes sits cross-legged on a wooden platform draped with a tiger-striped cloth, holding a small golden vessel in his right hand. He wears a red turban, a long rudraksha mala of golden-brown beads and gold-toned ornaments on his arms. Behind him stands a large golden statue of a seated figure on a green draped backdrop, with smaller golden figures beside it. Lush potted plants, green garlands and ferns surround the platform. The page identifies this as Swamiji; the appearance cues (turban, rudraksha mala, saffron-toned robes) are consistent with the Swamiji (probable) label, so this is an in-person candidate.2015-03-19March 19 20152015-03-19 +1 copiesA man sits cross-legged on a tiger-striped cushion before a green draped backdrop decorated with leafy garlands, potted plants and flowers. He wears a rust-orange turban, a rust-orange robe with a yellow-edged border, and a long necklace of gold beads with a brown rudraksha-style mala. He has a red bindi and white tilak marks on his forehead, smiles with eyes closed and raises one hand in a blessing gesture. Behind him, golden sculptures of seated and kneeling figures are visible. The probable Swamiji cues are the ornate gold necklace, rudraksha mala and saffron turban in a teaching setting, so this is a probable candidate; the speaker is shown seated while giving satsang.2015-03-20March 19 20152015-03-19A seated man in a red-maroon turban and rust-red robes with a golden shawl sits cross-legged on a wooden platform draped with a striped tiger skin.
