A photograph of a man in a saffron-orange turban and matching orange robe, smiling and looking downward as he walks across a light-grey carpet in an indoor hall. He wears a long white and pink flower garland and a rudraksha mala with a gold pendant, and a red tilak mark is on his forehead. Behind him, people in white clothing stand and move around, and blue chairs are visible at the right. The turban, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and garland match the page's Swamiji candidate cues, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) in person.2003-07-27A man wearing an orange turban with a red bindi on his forehead sits centrally in an outdoor evening gathering, wearing an orange saffron robe and a long garland of white jasmine with pink, green and blue flowers, with a heavy gold chain draped over the robe. Behind and around him stand men in white shirts and a woman in a gold-and-brown sari, several with hands folded, and bunches of green bananas hang in the background. The scene reads as a devotional or ceremonial event.2007-08-17A smiling figure in an orange saffron turban with a red bindi and a long orange shawl stands at the centre of a night gathering. He wears a long white and multicoloured jasmine garland and a heavy gold chain with a pendant. Behind him a man in a white shirt stands beside a hanging bunch of green bananas, and a woman in a gold-and-pink sari with bangles watches.

Behind him, a man in a white shirt and an older man in a white dhoti and shawl stand near a large pink and red backdrop. A second seated person in orange sits to the right. The photograph appears to show a seated figure with long hair, a turban and rudraksha beads; the visible appearance is consistent with a presentation of a person, but the page does not establish his presence, so the identity is uncertain. Four people are visible in total.2010-01-132004 - sacred collections uncategorisedPhoto of a seated man in an orange-saffron turban and orange robe, leaning on a white cushioned seat at an event with a crowd. He looks up and to the side with a slight smile. Behind him a cameraman in white with an orange shawl films with a tripod-mounted camera, and a photographer in white stands at right. Pink and orange sunflower-printed banners hang behind the stage, and audience members in saris, including a woman in purple and one in a blue-bordered white sari, sit in rows. Long hair is visible under the turban, and the man wears a rudraksha-style look is not visible here; the saffron clothing and turban suggest a sannyasi presence, though appearance alone is not conclusive.2006-09-17A smiling man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban with a red tilak on his forehead sits on a blue plastic chair, raising his right hand in greeting. He wears long dark rudraksha malas and a garland of yellow marigolds, red roses and white jasmine. Around him crowd several men: one in an orange shirt at left, a bald older man in a beige shirt behind, and a man in a checked shirt at right, all looking toward him. A red canopy is visible overhead. Appearance cues (long hair, orange turban, saffron robes, rudraksha malas) are consistent with Swamiji (probable) seated in person.2010-09-04A photograph of an event stage with a man in the foreground wearing an orange turban, a sleeveless orange robe and a long rudraksha mala, seated on the edge of a chair and turning to his left.
