A seated figure in orange robes rests bare feet on a golden tray at right, reclining on a red cushioned seat beside a gold-embossed wooden chest. Two shaved-headed priests in white dhotis with red-bordered shawls and gold-bead necklaces sit cross-legged on the floor, one pouring or tending items from a silver bowl. A woman with long wavy hair in an orange and green sari, with a red bindi, sits behind them looking on. Gold plates hold pink lotus flowers, shredded white offerings, and small bowls. A young attendant in orange sits at lower left and another at lower right.2010-10-30 +1 copiesAnnadhan in 20132013-01-01 +1 copiesNovember 05 20132013-11-05A seated man in saffron-orange robes and rudraksha malas sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne in a hall, eyes closed and hands resting in his lap. He has long swept-back hair and a gold neck ornament. Around a low wooden table with silver plates of fruit and flowers, priests in white dhotis with gold necklaces and tilak perform a puja, one holding a lit oil lamp and another a small flame. A woman in white and a shaved-head priest in an orange cloth sit nearby, with a few young people in the foreground. Swamiji (probable) is the saffron-robed figure on the throne, based on distinctive long hair, saffron clothing and malas.2010-10-19 +1 copiesOctober 15 20132013-10-15May 08 20122012-05-08May 09 20152015-05-09
