A seated figure in an orange saffron turban and orange-saffron cloth, bare-chested with gold armlets, wears a white jasmine garland with red rose and bead garlands. The figure rests a right hand on the head of a kneeling man in a white shirt with a red rudraksha-style mala, who holds bananas. Behind them stand a gold-carved throne, a red velvet cushion, green potted plants and a dark red curtain. The scene suggests a blessing or darshan. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has a turban, ornate saffron clothing and ceremonial garlands; the kneeling devotee is a man in white with a mala.

Photograph of a seated figure in an orange turban and saffron garments, wearing a white and red flower garland, gold ornaments and an orange-gold shawl, seated on a red-upholstered gold throne. A man in a white shirt with a red-and-white beaded necklace kneels before the seated figure and receives a blessing with a hand placed on his head or shoulder. Potted green plants and a dark red curtain are in the background. The seated figure has long swept hair, distinctive saffron turban and garland cues, consistent with the a person candidate, though appearance is only partly clear.2014-04-24Photo 11694009 +2 copiesJune 21 20152015-06-21 +1 copiesA seated man in a maroon-red turban and deep red-brown robe sits on a red velvet cushioned throne with ornate gold carved armrests. He wears a white and red flower garland, gold bangles on his upper arm and wrist, and a rudraksha-style red and gold necklace. He smiles while placing his right hand on the grey-haired head of an older man kneeling before him. The kneeling man wears a white shirt and a red beaded necklace and holds an orange fruit in his hand. Oranges sit on a tray in the foreground, with green potted plants and a red-draped background behind. The scene suggests a blessing given by the seated man to a devotee. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long-looking swept hair under a turban, ornate gold jewellery and a ceremonial garland on a throne, so he is labelled as a probable candidate.2015-04-25January 31 20152015-01-31 +1 copiesJanuary 01 20142014-01-01Photograph of a seated figure in a red-orange turban and matching saffron-orange shawl, wearing a pink flower garland, gold ceremonial necklaces and bangles, smiling broadly as they reach out to rest a hand on the shoulder of a man kneeling in front of them. The kneeling man wears a white shirt and has short grey-streaked hair. Behind them, a standing attendant in orange robes holds a gold-coloured ornate box, and another person in white stands beside a red-orange shawl with rudraksha beads. The seat is ornate gold with a maroon cushion and a patterned carpet lies on the floor. The seated figure has crown-like turban, saffron clothing and rudraksha-style beads, matching probable Swamiji cues, so the candidate is labelled Swamiji (probable) and seated in a ceremonial setting receiving a devotee.2015-07-21February 06 20142014-02-06Photo 11694008 +1 copiesJanuary 01 20142014-01-01A seated figure in a maroon turban and maroon robe sits on an ornate golden throne, smiling and extending a hand toward a kneeling devotee.
