A standing man in an orange-red sannyasi robe walks barefoot down the center of a long striped rug between rows of seated students at a yoga session. Behind him stands a red-draped stage with golden trishul staffs and a large statue of a deity murti. Seated participants in black, white and grey clothing face the front; a shirtless man sits in the left foreground. The walking figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji (long dark hair and beard, saffron robe) leading the session. Gold trishul staffs line the stage.

December 18 20162016-12-18A man with long dark hair and a full beard, wearing an orange-red saffron robe draped over one shoulder and a saffron dhoti, walks barefoot down the centre of a red stage along a striped woven runner. Behind him, a large deity murti of a seated figure in red and gold stands on a rock-like pedestal, flanked by a row of gold trishula staffs and gold kalasha-like lamps on a red-and-gold draped platform. Rows of seated students in black and white clothes face the stage on mats, some with blonde hair in ponytails. The appearance-based candidate matches several cues: long hair, saffron robe and a sannyasi's ochre attire, so this is a person in person walking the stage during a yoga session, not a confirmed identity.2016-12-18December 18 20162016-12-18A barefoot man in a saffron-orange sannyasi wrap walks across a striped multicolour rug toward a stage, with long dark hair and a full beard.
