A photograph of a seated man on an ornate red velvet throne flanked by two golden lion statues. He wears a red-brown garment, a long floral garland of red, pink and white flowers, gold bangles and a gold pendant, with a red tilak on his forehead, smiling and raising one hand in blessing. Two devotees bow at the base of the throne: one in a white outfit with white flower trim and one in a green and blue sari with a white flower in the hair, touching the feet. Behind the throne stand two saffron-robed attendants with shaved heads and white tilak, one holding a camera. A standing older man in white dhoti and shirt watches on the left. Red drapes and a white air conditioner form the backdrop.

A photograph of a man seated on a red velvet throne flanked by two golden lion sculptures, smiling and raising one hand in greeting. He wears a rust-orange garment, a pink and white flower garland with yellow accents, a red-orange tilak and gold bangles. Two devotees bow at his feet: one in white clothing on the left and a woman in a blue and gold sari with white flowers in her hair. On the left an older man in white shirt and dhoti smiles and holds flowers. On the right a shaved-headed man in orange robes with a rudraksha mala stands beside a video camera operator. A red curtain and a wall air conditioner stand behind them. The seated man is presented in the sourced page as a person, with throne-seated appearance and orange garments with rudraksha mala, so the identity remains uncertain from appearance alone.2013-09-15September 15 20132013-09-15A photograph of a seated man on a red velvet throne flanked by two gold lion statues. He wears a brown-orange robe, gold bangles, a pink, yellow and white flower garland, and a white-and-red forehead mark, and smiles with eyes closed, one hand raised. Behind him stands a shaved-headed priest in orange robes with a rudraksha mala, making a mudra. In front, a woman in a blue-and-gold silk sari bows with her head on a gold-carved footstool, and a man in white kneels beside her. The floor has a red patterned carpet and a wall air conditioner is visible. The seated figure fits Swamiji (probable) by his distinctive long swept-back hair, ornate gold jewellery and garland on a throne.2013-09-15September 15 20132013-09-15September 15 20132013-09-15A seated man in a saffron-red robe with a white forehead mark and a white and orange flower garland sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head arms and red patterned upholstery. He rests one palm forward in blessing toward a man in white shirt and trousers who kneels with hands pressed together in namaskar. Behind them, two women in saffron-red sarees with gold borders and rudraksha malas stand on red carpet scattered with petals, and a white pillar and air conditioner are visible. The seated man matches the a person appearance cues of a saffron robe, flower garland and gold-and-rudraksha ornaments, and receiving honour from kneeling devotees on a throne fits his role, so the seated figure is a probable candidate.2014-09-21September 15 20132013-09-15 +1 copiesA photograph of a ceremonial padapuja scene on a stage before deep burgundy velvet drapes. A seated figure on an ornate gold throne with carved lion finials wears saffron-orange robes, a red bindi, a gold necklace and gold armbands; the figure's long hair is tied up. Their forearms are extended forward. Before the throne, a woman in an orange and white checked sari kneels with her head bowed, and a man in a pink shirt and dark trousers kneels beside her, holding a small brass vessel and a red-lidded tray. Two shaven-headed men in saffron robes stand behind, one leaning forward. Patterned red carpet covers the floor. Whether the seated figure is the a person is an appearance-based judgment; cues such as long hair, saffron clothing, gold ornaments and the throne are present but the image does not establish identity with confidence.2013-01-20September 15 20132013-09-15 +1 copiesNovember 22 20152015-11-22September 15 20132013-09-15 +1 copiesA standing man in a rust-brown dhoti and shawl with a gold-toned sash stands on a red-draped dais in front of a red curtain and a gold lion statue.
