He sits in a bare-chested pose with a tiger-striped saffron-brown cloth and a brown wrap, holding a ceremonial gold-handled staff in one hand while the other hand is raised in a mudra. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace, seated on a throne.2023-07-23 +1 copiesMay 04 20232023-05-04A bearded man seated cross-legged on an ornate golden throne with lion-carved armrests and pillars, bare-chested and bare-footed. He wears a tall black turban with a crescent moon and a small blue ornament, white marks on his forehead, a long multi-strand necklace of beads and gold pendants, rudraksha-style malas, and armlets.

He wears a tall maroon and gold crown with a crescent emblem and a blue-white forehead band, gold earrings, layered gold necklaces and many large rudraksha malas, and is bare-chested with a maroon cloth at the waist. He raises one hand in a blessing gesture while holding a golden staff with a serpent-form top in the other. Swamiji (probable): the figure shows long dark hair under the crown, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold ornaments on a throne, and is presented as a depiction of the teacher. A carved gold deity on the left holds a sword-like weapon, and another on the right bears a trident-style staff. The image is a photograph of a staged portrait with a dark purple background.2023-09-05 +1 copiesA bearded man with a large brown-and-maroon turban and a blue-white tilak on his forehead sits cross-legged on an ornate golden throne flanked by golden lion figures. He is bare-chested, wearing gold-toned beaded rudraksha-style necklaces, a large pendant, armlets, and a maroon dhoti, and holds a tall golden trident in his right hand. Golden carved deity figures and a crescent-moon motif decorate the throne back and side finials against a deep red backdrop. Swamiji (probable) is shown on a throne with saffron-gold and rudraksha adornments, a crown-like turban and a trident, so the identity is an appearance-based label rather than a confirmed identification.2023-08-07May 19 20232023-05-19A seated man is framed centrally against an ornate golden throne (peetha) with carved arches, flanking golden lion figures and tall golden staff finials topped with small figures. He is bare-chested with a dark beard, wearing a tall golden crown with red and green jewels, a blue-white forehead marking, a large ornate gold pendant necklace, a long rudraksha-style mala with gold beads, gold armlets and bangles, and a leopard-print lower garment. He holds a golden ceremonial staff in his right hand. A cobra figure rests near the base of the throne. Behind him, golden deity figures are carved into the throne back. The background is a deep magenta backdrop. The image is a studio-style portrait with a copyright credit line at the lower right. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure given the ceremonial throne, crown and rudraksha mala, though the single photograph alone does not confirm identity.2023-09-12March 03 20232023-03-03
