May 24 20172017-05-24Close-up photo of a bearded man with a white vibhuti horizontal mark and red kumkum dot on his forehead, smiling to one side. He wears a rust-red shawl, a gold chain, and a garland of white jasmine and pink lotus-like flowers with yellow marigolds draped over his shoulder. Behind him is ornate gold-embossed metalwork and a string of warm lights against a dark backdrop. Swamiji (probable): the man has long swept-back hair, rudraksha-style red shawl, gold ornaments and a garland, matching the page's Swamiji claim, though the appearance cues are only moderately distinctive.2017-05-24 +1 copiesMay 24 20172017-05-24May 16 20172017-05-16Close-up photo of a smiling man with short dark hair and a full beard, wearing a white vertical tilak with a red bindi on his forehead, a gold earring, and a garland of white jasmine, yellow marigold and pink flowers around his neck. Behind him is ornate gold metalwork. The man has appearance-based cues of a person candidate (probable) but only one person is visible, with a garland and tilak rather than saffron robes or a crown, so identity is uncertain.2017-05-24A man seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a gilded shell-patterned backrest and red velvet cushion, speaking into a microphone at a satsang. He wears a rust-brown dhoti-style garment, a long brown rudraksha-style mala with large gold beads, pink and white lotus garlands over both shoulders, a rudraksha bracelet on his upper arm, and a gold earring. He has a white tilak with a red centre mark on his forehead, long swept-back dark hair and a full beard. A deep red curtain hangs behind him.2016-10-01A seated man in a golden ornate setting, with long dark dreadlocked hair, a dark bead-free bare shoulder, a brown-red cloth wrap, heavy gold ceremonial necklaces with large gold beads, a gold pendant, a gold earring, and a white-and-red flower garland around his neck. He wears a vertical tilak mark on his forehead and rests against a leopard-print cushion in front of a gold-carved throne. Swamiji (probable) cues: long hair, ornate gold jewellery and garlands, and a throne setting. Colourful tassels hang at the right edge.2017-03-18May 24 20172017-05-24A photograph of a man seated with eyes closed in a meditative, devotional pose before an ornate gold-leaf backdrop of carved deity figures. He wears a white tilak with a red vertical mark on his forehead, a red-orange cloth draped over his shoulders, and a thick garland of white flowers and pink lotus blossoms with green leaves, along with a gold chain and beaded necklace. Strings of small yellow lights hang against a dark background on the right. The a person label is uncertain because the appearance cues are limited and the page's a person attribution cannot be verified from appearance alone; the figure is a devotee-style presence in ceremonial garlands rather than a clearly identified teacher.2017-05-24May 22 20182018-05-22April 05 20172017-04-05A man with grey-streaked dark hair and a full beard sits smiling with eyes half closed in front of a deep red curtain and an ornate gold-leaf backdrop. He wears a rust-brown shawl draped over his shoulders, a gold pendant on a cord at the throat, and a long garland of pink lotus blossoms strung with gold beads. A white tilak marks his forehead with a dark bindi above the brows. At the right edge, the partial figure of another person with short hair is visible. The lotus garland and devotional seating suggest darshan, though the face and garb alone do not establish an identity.2017-05-11
