A photograph of a seated man with long dark swept-back hair, wearing a saffron-orange robe, a red and white flower garland, and rudraksha malas, seated on a red throne with gold lion-head armrests under a white and red tent. A woman in white with a red-bordered sari kneels before him, touching his hand, while a bare-chested man in orange with a yellow and white bead necklace stands behind. Several women in orange and saffron garments with beaded necklaces, some holding offerings, gather around, and more devotees in white stand in the background. The seated figure appears to be a probable Swamiji candidate based on his long swept-back hair, ornate saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and garland. The scene resembles a devotional puja or padapuja at a festival setting.2016-01-03A photograph of a seated figure on a red and gold throne with golden lion-head armrests, wearing a long red and gold garment, a tall black hair crown, a large red and white flower garland, and white marks on the face.

He smiles while taking a folded paper from a woman in a rust-orange sari with a dark rudraksha-style mala who holds it out. A bearded man in white with a gold-bordered cloth and a rudraksha necklace sits in the foreground, his back to the camera.

A figure seated on a gold-carved throne wears a red-orange turban and an orange-saffron robe with a white flower garland, bracelets and a rudraksha-style bead strand, while a man in front in a white dhoti with gold border and a dark rudraksha mala gestures toward him. Behind them a large crowd of people in white, orange and saffron clothes sits and stands, with speakers and a banner on the stage. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has turban, saffron robe and garland cues, so this is an appearance-based candidate for an in-person presence.2015-07-26May 02 20162016-05-02Photograph of an evening outdoor tent event with white canopy and fans.

He sits on a red cushioned seat beside a gold lion-shaped ornament and a brass oil lamp. In the background, women in orange and white saris with rudraksha malas sit on the floor under a white tent with a ceiling fan. A bald man in a striped shirt and beaded bracelets leans in from the right, holding the paper. The appearance matches the probable Swamiji cues of long swept-back hair, a flower garland and ceremonial gold-trimmed clothing, so the person is labelled Swamiji (probable). The scene reads as a satsang with devotees submitting written questions.2015-05-31
