A man seated on a carved wooden swing-throne with gold trim and a red-checked cushion speaks into a handheld microphone, wearing an orange-red robe with bare feet and a sacred mark on his forehead. Beside him, several people in orange-red robes sit on the floor: a woman holding a microphone wears a rudraksha mala, and others sit or lean nearby. Behind them stand a brass oil-lamp stand with bird finials, a bronze figure of a deity, a white pedestal fan, a brass trident-topped staff, and orange cloth in a temple-like hall. The scene looks like a satsang discourse.

A man seated on an ornate wooden swing with gold-carved edges speaks into a handheld microphone at a small table. He wears an orange-saffron cloth, has long swept-back dark hair, and a lowered wooden stick-like bead garland is visible. Behind him stand brass oil lamps (diya) with bird-shaped tops, a bronze deity murti, and a standing fan. Seated devotees in orange-saffron robes and rudraksha malas, one with a red bag and another with a white-marked forehead, sit on the floor clapping and listening, with a brass trident-like ritual object at right.2016-06-17A photograph of a seated teacher on a gold-and-wood swing-style seat (peetha) under hanging brass lamps in a temple courtyard with red walls. The central figure wears a saffron-red cloth over the shoulders and a dark turban-like head covering, gesturing while speaking into a microphone on a stand, with a water bottle and papers on a small wooden table in front. Behind him is a brass Nataraja-style plaque. Around him seated young men in orange and saffron robes with beaded necklaces and rudraksha malas listen, one holding a tablet. A bald man in orange with a rudraksha mala sits in front, and an older man in white with a red shawl sits at the right edge. The setting suggests a satsang or discourse with brass lamps and trishul-topped stands.2016-01-11June 17 20162016-06-17January 11 20162016-01-11February 17 20172017-02-17February 26 20162016-02-26February 26 20162016-02-26A photograph of a seated discourse in an ashram courtyard. A man with long dark hair and a short beard sits cross-legged on a gilded wooden throne with carved golden pillars and a hanging canopy, wearing an orange-red robe and holding a microphone. A small table with a water bottle sits in front of him. Seated on the floor before him are rows of devotees in orange and saffron clothing, some in yellow saris and blue salwar; a woman with long dreadlocked hair in a red top holds a white hand fan toward him. Bronze statues of standing figures and a metal ring sculpture decorate the red-walled background. The man on the throne is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate, wearing an orange robe and seated in a position of honour, with distinctive long hair and beard cues.2016-09-05January 11 20162016-01-11January 11 20162016-01-11September 05 20162016-09-05September 05 20162016-09-05
