A seated man in a saffron-orange robe with long dark hair and a tilak on his forehead sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne decorated with white and yellow flower garlands. Around him, several devotees attend: a woman in white with a cream shawl adjusts the flowers, a man in a dark blue shirt and white trousers leans in close, and women in white and pink saris stand nearby against pink drapes with gold swan motifs. The setting appears to be a hall ceremony, with the man in orange holding a small object in his lap. Given the robe, long hair and ornate throne, the seated figure is a person candidate, though his appearance is only partly clear from this angle.

A seated man in a saffron-red wrap sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with red and white flower garlands, against a backdrop of gold peacock-motif panels and pink drapes. He has long dark hair and a red forehead mark, and his bare feet rest on a red cushion. Three people bend toward him in a padapuja-style gesture: a woman in a white sari with gold bangles touches his feet, another woman in a white garment bends forward, and a man in a striped shirt leans in. On the right, a man in orange robes holds a brass item. The figure on the throne matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of long hair and saffron clothing, shown here receiving devotees in a seated role.2009-07-11A photograph of a padapuja-style honouring at a stage.

A seated figure in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold and red throne decorated with white and yellow flowers and garlands. Two women stand at left, one in a dark maroon sari with a braid and one in a yellow sari. A man in a dark shirt and white trousers bends forward toward the throne, and a young man in an orange robe stands at right with his arms extended. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person but cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so identity is left uncertain.2009-07-11A seated man in a red-orange robe sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with red, yellow and white flower garlands, with pink and silver drapes behind. He has a bare upper chest and bare feet resting on a red cushion. A man in a checked shirt and dark trousers bends forward to touch or bless his head. Two men stand at right, one in an orange-saffron garment and one in a light blue shirt and dark trousers. At left a woman in a white sari with gold border stands, and another woman in a white sari sits kneeling at lower left, with a small tray of flowers nearby. This is a devotional honouring scene with a candidate who has a bare upper chest, seated on a flower-decorated throne. Appearance cues are insufficient for an identification, so the seated figure is described by role as a person being honoured on a throne.2009-07-11February 15 20092009-02-15June 14 20092009-06-14A photograph of a seated figure in an orange-saffron robe on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, bare feet resting on a gold footstool.
