A photograph taken at a large hall event with a dense audience seated on the floor, many with their backs to the camera. In the foreground a man in profile stands in an orange saffron robe draped over one shoulder, with very long matted dreadlocks down his back, a beard, and a red thread bracelet on his wrist; his right arm extends outward in a gesturing motion as he addresses the crowd. Beside him, a small child in a dark blue top points upward. Behind the stage a red curtain hangs, and a large screen shows golden lamps and a temple-like image with warm lights. A speaker stand is visible at left.

A bearded man in a long saffron-orange robe with long dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead stands centre stage with his right arm extended outward, palm open. A red wrist thread is visible on his arm. Seated devotees fill the foreground and background, including a young man in a black t-shirt with eyes closed, a woman in a yellow top, and a child at right. A wooden cabinet stands behind the stage and a fan is visible at lower left. The man's appearance shows several cues associated with the Swamiji candidate (long hair, saffron robe, tilak), so this is a probable Swamiji on stage presenting a yoga session.2016-12-15A bearded man with long dark hair, wearing a saffron-orange draped robe and a small red bindi with white tilak on his forehead, stands on a stage with his right arm extended outward and his left hand on his hip. He wears a headset microphone. Seated audience members in dark clothing fill the foreground and sides of a large hall in front of a deep red velvet curtain, with a small red-lit sign on a stand behind him. A purple logo appears in the upper left corner. The scene suggests a teaching session or discourse.2016-12-15A photo from a yoga session in a large hall with a red velvet curtain and a projection screen at left. A man with long dark dreadlocks, a white tilak with a red bindi on his forehead, and a full beard stands at centre in an orange sleeveless top with an orange wrap at the waist and hips, one hand extended outward. Seated devotees fill the foreground and background, many in dark clothes and some in white or orange, with heads and shoulders visible. The room is an ashram-style assembly hall used for satsang and yoga sessions.2016-12-15A standing teacher in an orange-saffron robe with long dark hair, a white forehead mark and a headset microphone gestures with his right arm toward a large seated audience in a yoga hall. Audience members sit on striped mats in black and grey clothing; a man in the foreground with his palms joined in anjali listens attentively, and a dreadlocked person sits with their back to the camera. Behind the stage a golden deity murti with an orange-and-blue headdress stands beside a lit backdrop and tall ornate candle stands. The scene suggests a yoga session or satsang discourse. Swamiji (probable): the standing figure in saffron robes with long hair and a forehead mark matches the page's identification, though his face is not used for identification.2016-12-15December 15 20162016-12-15December 15 20162016-12-15
