A photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes on an ornate gold-and-red throne, draped with a long garland of white and pink flowers and a second garland across the seat. Around him stand several men in white dhotis and white shirts, many wearing rudraksha or bead malas and event lanyard badges, plus a man in orange robes at the far left and a woman in a green sari at right. Flower petals lie on the red carpet, and a yellow sunburst backdrop with white rays fills the background. The seated figure is the appearance-based candidate for a person, given the saffron robe, rudraksha mala and throne setting, though the face is not clearly identifiable. Standing devotees in white attend the throne during the darshan event.

July 12 20092009-07-12A seated figure in an orange-saffron robe sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne (peetha) heavily garlanded with white and orange flower strands, with a raised hand in blessing.

Seated centrally on the throne is a man with long dark hair wearing an orange-saffron robe with gold border, a white flower garland and a gold necklace, with a red flower offering at his feet; this seated figure's appearance is a probable Swamiji candidate from his long hair, saffron robe and ornate gold adornments. Standing to the left are three men in white dhoti and shirt-style garments with rudraksha malas; to the right two women in white saris with gold borders and rudraksha malas stand beside the throne. Silver puja vessels sit on a red carpet in the foreground.2006-12-27A photograph of a seated man on a gilded throne with a red cushion, garlanded with white and pink flower chains, wearing an orange-saffron robe and waving his right hand while smiling.
