Outdoor photo of a crowd greeting a smiling man wearing a red-orange turban and a large garland of pink, white and orange flowers, with a small red mark on his forehead. Dark-haired heads fill the foreground. Tall date palms, green shrubs and a white building with a wooden lattice gate stand behind him. Several men in white shirts and saffron-orange shawls surround him, and a bald man in orange robes stands at right. A white-shirted man stands close to his side as people press forward to greet him.

June 20 20142014-06-20A photograph of a crowded outdoor entrance with a white marble facade and dark pillars. At centre, a smiling man in a red-maroon turban and saffron-orange robe wears heavy garlands of white flowers, pink and red blooms, and green leaves, with gold bangles on his wrist. Around him, shaven-headed men in orange robes and rudraksha malas stand beside men in white shirts and dhotis, and women in saris with red bindis. A white van and palm trees are visible in the background. The scene suggests a welcome procession, and the central figure's appearance is a probable match for Swamiji based on the turban, saffron clothing, and garlands.2014-06-20June 20 20142014-06-20June 20 20142014-06-20July 01 20142014-07-01July 01 20142014-07-01July 03 20142014-07-03Outdoor street scene at dusk with trees behind.
