Walls are rough reddish stone and a wooden plank leans against the right side.2011-11-12November 09 20112011-11-09A photograph inside a dimly lit stone temple corridor lined with carved pillars and fluorescent tube lights. In the foreground on the right, a figure in a saffron-orange robe with long dark hair and a full beard walks away from the camera, with a dark pouch or bag hanging at his side; the cues are long hair, saffron clothing and a beard, so this is a probable Swamiji appearance-based candidate. Several men in white shirts and white dhotis walk in a line behind him toward a bright doorway at the far end, and a dark shape sits near the bottom edge.2006-09-18Visitors walk through the stone colonnade of an ancient temple.

Nearby, a woman in white clothing walks beside a man in a teal shirt and cargo trousers, while a man in a white t-shirt and shorts faces away holding a camera. A man in a yellow-orange shirt and dark trousers stands at right beside a woman in a khaki outfit with a scarf.2007-07-02
