Indoor event photo: a man in a white embroidered kurta and white shawl with a white-and-red flower garland leans over an orange-draped table laden with apples, a pomegranate and strings of red and brown beads. Beside him a woman in white with a rudraksha mala holds her palms together in namaskar, and a young boy in a white shirt reaches toward the offerings. Behind them women in yellow and white shawls and a dense crowd fill a hall, with a red-and-white garland and red flowers at the left edge.

November 29 20092009-11-29September 13 20092009-09-13A seated man in an orange-saffron shawl with a green and red flower garland and a white forehead mark sits on a throne-like chair with folded hands raised, facing a group of seated devotees. Several people in front sit on the floor with hands joined in namaskar; a man in a white dhoti and a woman in a yellow shawl are prominent, and a man in a white shirt sits nearby. Brass plates on a golden cloth hold fruits and pink flowers, and a wooden box with fruit sits in the foreground near a marigold garland. A pale pink wall and dark curtain form the backdrop.2010-09-18A seated figure in an orange saffron robe with long, wavy dark hair wears a multicoloured flower garland with yellow and white blooms. Their hand rests on the bowed head of an elderly white-haired man in a white shirt and a dark rudraksha mala, who holds a small red object in both hands. Around them, a woman in a white sari with a gold border and a dark mala stands watching, and a young man in a white shirt looks on. Others in white and gold garments stand in a hall with a purple backdrop.2010-02-15July 25 20092009-07-25October 17 20102010-10-17August 14 20162016-08-14January 01 20092009-01-01A seated man with long, swept-back dark hair wears a saffron-orange garment and sits with palms pressed together in namaskar on a red-cushioned seat. Before him, a red tray holds red apples, wrapped sweets and folded bills. Around him, devotees in white and cream clothes sit on the floor with hands folded, including a woman in a teal sari with a red bindi and a boy in white. A man in white with white forehead markings bows low at the lower left over a brass plate. Cream walls form the backdrop, consistent with a pada puja offering setting. Figure identity is uncertain from appearance alone, so the central figure is described by role and attire.2010-02-14A seated man in an orange saffron robe with long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead receives a multi-coloured garland of white jasmine, red and yellow flowers, being placed around his neck by a woman. A man in a white shirt kneels before him, and a small girl in a white dress stands at right, reaching toward the garland. On the left, men in white dhotis and shirts stand with hands pressed together in namaste, one holding a red box. Behind them a shrine with framed pictures, a deity image and hanging garlands is visible, along with a butterfly-patterned glass panel. The garland-receiving figure has distinctive long hair and saffron robes, matching the page's Swamiji cues, so this is a probable appearance-based identification.2010-02-15June 14 20092009-06-14June 24 20142014-06-24 +1 copies
