March 02 20132013-03-02March 02 20132013-03-02A photograph of a seated man at night under a large ceremonial canopy with fringed tassels in purple, orange and green. He wears a dense garland of red and pink flowers with gold-trimmed green bands, over several strands of rudraksha beads and heavy gold bead necklaces. His clothing is orange with gold borders, and he wears a leopard-print garment at his chest and gold armlets. He holds a curved golden sword in his right hand and smiles, with white markings on his forehead and face. Beside him sit a gold-and-silver ornate vessel and a jeweled container, and a silver sword lies on a red cloth in the foreground. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, orange ornate clothing, rudraksha and gold necklaces, and a royal-style ceremonial setting identify this figure as the presented candidate. Several spectators stand in the blurred background.2013-03-02 +1 copiesMarch 02 20132013-03-02March 02 20132013-03-02 +1 copiesMarch 02 20132013-03-02A smiling man with long dark swept-back hair and white and orange forehead markings sits on a decorated seat under a colourful canopy with green and purple tassels.
