A photograph of a seated figure on a golden throne decorated with a large arc of marigolds and yellow, red and purple flowers. The seated figure wears a pink and gold turban, a red and gold garland, layered gold necklaces and a cream shawl, and smiles. Beneath the throne lies a heap of white and pink flower petals. In the foreground a smiling man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands with palms pressed together in namaskar, with a red tilak on his forehead. Behind him a man in a rust-coloured garment with gold necklace and another person in white stand nearby. The setting appears to be a temple hall during a garland-and-petal honouring. Watermarked archive text is omitted.

He wears layered red and white garlands, a rudraksha-style mala, gold bangles and a maroon-brown dhoti-style cloth. A young man in white shirt and dhoti bends forward to offer flowers, and an attendant in orange robes stands at right holding a flower garland. Gold and brass ritual vessels, hanging brass bells and floral strands decorate the background. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure receiving the bhiksha offering, with his long hair and ceremonial gold and rudraksha adornments distinguishing him as the central honoured figure.2013-07-22January 06 20132013-01-06January 06 20132013-01-06January 06 20132013-01-06A seated man in a pink and gold turban, saffron-orange dhoti and yellow shawl, wearing layered gold necklaces and a rudraksha mala, smiles while a man in white dhoti and kurta drapes a thick red and yellow garland around him.

A seated figure bare-chested, with a pink turban and a white and gold dhoti, wears layered garlands of red, yellow, purple and white flowers. The figure sits on a throne-like seat heaped with marigolds and roses, smiling and raising a hand in greeting. A man in a white shirt bends forward to offer something from a plate and touch the figure's hand. Behind them, a priest in a red-brown dhoti holds a silver tray aloft. To the left, a sannyasi in saffron robes with a rudraksha mala sits beside a golden chair, and a woman in an orange sari and a man in a green shirt stand nearby. A golden throne back frames the scene. The seated figure's identity is uncertain from appearance; cues are limited to the pink turban and garlands.2013-01-06A seated figure in an orange-brown garment with a white shawl, pink and gold turban, gold necklaces and a red mala, smiling, is being garlanded by a man in white kurta and white dhoti who stands before a floral arch of yellow, red, purple and white flowers. A tall brass lamp stands at right against a stone pillar. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's turban, gold necklaces and saffron-orange clothing match the cues the page associates with Swamiji, so this is a probable in-person candidate.2013-01-06
