A seated figure in an orange-brown robe sits on a red-cushioned golden throne in front of maroon drapes. A long garland of white flowers and multicoloured ribbons hangs from the figure's neck, and a decorated crown-like ornament with blue and white motifs is being placed on or raised above the head. Several men in white dhotis and white shirts surround the throne, some wearing orange shawls. One man in white, bald-headed, reaches forward with a ritual gesture. Another man holds a green leafy bundle near the throne's base, and a cameraman in the right corner films. The scene appears to be a coronation or honouring ceremony.2013-03-03December 01 20092009-12-01March 03 20132013-03-03December 31 20152015-12-31November 06 20132013-11-06A seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne wears a saffron-orange dhoti-style garment and a multicolour garland of red, pink and yellow flowers, with long swept-back hair; he extends his hand toward a devotee bowing before him. The devotee wears a white kurta and a yellow shawl. Behind them stand two saffron-robed sannyasis, one with a shaved head and rudraksha mala, and a younger attendant in white with a tilak. A white pedestal fan and an air conditioner are visible in the room.2013-05-17May 17 20132013-05-17March 03 20132013-03-03November 22 20152015-11-22A man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands at left, lifting a long white and red garland over the head of a seated man in saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala. The seated man sits on a gold ornate throne with red upholstery inside a stone temple hall, wearing a headband and gold ear adornments. Several onlookers in white and light clothing stand and sit behind them, and a partly visible person in white stands in the background. The seated man has long swept-back hair and a gold necklace, which matches the appearance cues of the Swamiji candidate, so the seated figure is Swamiji (probable), receiving a garland in a temple setting.2012-05-12March 01 20132013-03-01November 22 20152015-11-22
