A large floral garland in purple, yellow and red sits on the throne at left, and a gilded temple-style structure with deity figures is visible above it.

Behind them a gold ornate throne and a large floral arrangement, with a gilded deity figure and a gold umbrella above. A red carpeted stage edge runs along the bottom. The standing figure has long hair and distinctive ceremonial adornments, but the appearance is not sufficiently certain to confirm identity, so he is described by role only.2015-01-13January 13 20152015-01-13Photograph of an outdoor stage event with a red carpeted platform and gold-patterned backdrop.

In the foreground left, a shaved-headed man in orange robes and a rudraksha mala sits with his hands resting on his lap. Beside him, a bald man with glasses in orange robes and a mala holds his hands together in front. Further right, a white-bearded man in orange with a rudraksha mala sits with hands clasped. A man in orange with a red-and-orange turban sits in the centre-right, and a younger man in white with an orange shawl and a red bag stands at right, leaning toward the seated monks.

Floral decoration appears at top right.2016-05-06Outdoor photo on a dusty path beside trees, with a red carpet with patterned rug borders laid underfoot. A white-bearded older man in orange robes with a green-and-gold border wears a white and red-blue flower garland and walks barefoot, gesturing with his hand. Beside him a younger man in an orange turban and orange robes with a rudraksha mala presses his palms together in greeting and smiles. Behind them an attendant in white carries a brass tray of flowers and fruit, a man in white shirt and dark trousers carries a bag, and an orange ceremonial flag on a pole is visible. Several other people in white and orange stand nearby. The older man with the white beard and garland is a visitor receiving a welcome, with a person cue only from the orange robes and garland, so the identity is unsure.2006-12-31January 13 20152015-01-13
