He wears a rust-red saffron wrap, ceremonial gold necklace and rudraksha mala, with a leopard-print waistband, and rests his hands on the armrests. A tall silver trident stands beside the throne. Behind him, seated devotees in white and saffron clothing and rudraksha malas face forward in rows of chairs, with a red digital clock on the wall.

His long dark hair is swept back. He holds a silver ceremonial staff topped with a carved lion-like finial, and a silver lectern stands beside him. Behind him, seated devotees in orange and white clothing watch, and a pedestal fan is visible at left. This appears to be a live satsang discourse setting. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's long swept-back hair, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and gold ornament are consistent with the page's claim, so the figure is described as the presiding teacher on the throne.2017-08-05July 30 20172017-07-30August 05 20172017-08-05July 05 20172017-07-05A man with long, swept-back dark hair, a white tripundra mark and a dark bindi on his forehead, a full beard and a gold necklace sits on an ornate silver and red velvet throne with a carved sun face. He wears a rust-orange shawl over bare shoulders and chest, and a tall silver trident stands to his left. Seated devotees in the foreground and a shirtless boy on the right face him in a large hall with hanging orange and yellow decorative lamps. A video camera appears at the right edge. The setting resembles a satsang or darshan event. Given the orange wrap, long hair and gold necklace along with the throne and trident, this is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in darshan.2018-04-18A man in a red-orange sleeveless garment with gold chain necklaces, rudraksha-style beaded bracelet and a vertical tilak on his forehead holds a silver ceremonial staff topped with ornate finials while seated beside a red-cushioned silver throne with carved floral detailing.

The scene is a formal satsang or discourse setting. Swamiji (probable): the man has long hair, gold necklaces and an orange-red garment, and sits on the throne; the page identifies him as present.2017-07-31July 31 20172017-07-31A photograph of a long-haired man with dreadlocks, seated on an ornate red velvet and silver throne at the front of a hall.
