A photograph of a stage event. A figure in an orange robe with a long gold-beaded necklace sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-like armrests and a red cushion, smiling and gesturing toward a kneeling man in a white shirt and trousers who is bowing with his hands together. A microphone stands on a stand beside the throne. Behind the throne hangs a large red and pink backdrop, with a dark blue curtain and colourful beaded garlands at the left. A third man in white with an orange shawl sits at the lower right near the edge of the stage. Seated figure's appearance matches the probable Swamiji description: long swept-back hair, saffron robe and ornate gold necklace, on a throne, so this is an appearance-based candidate.

February 24 20072007-02-24February 24 20072007-02-24A photograph of an indoor stage event with a large backdrop portrait of a bearded, long-haired man. A woman with long dark hair in an orange robe and a gold necklace sits on an ornate gold throne with a small canopy, one hand raised in greeting, speaking into a microphone. A bearded man in white clothing and an orange shawl kneels on a white mattress before her with hands joined, while a man in white with an orange shawl kneels at right gesturing toward the throne. Behind them on the floor, about a dozen men in white robes and orange shawls sit in rows, some wearing rudraksha malas. Colourful woven and beaded hangings and flower garlands decorate the stage, and a standing fan is visible at left. Persons are seated and kneeling, not in procession.2007-02-24February 24 20072007-02-24February 24 20072007-02-24February 24 20072007-02-24February 24 20072007-02-24February 24 20072007-02-24A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne with carved lion armrests, wearing an orange-saffron robe, a gold necklace and long swept-back dark hair, who is placing a hand on the head of a kneeling man in a white shirt and white trousers. Behind them, seated devotees in saffron and white clothing sit on a white mat; one holds a microphone. A red and gold backdrop, a walking stick and a garland with coloured flowers hang nearby, indicating a seated blessing or darshan in a hall.2007-02-24February 24 20072007-02-24A photo of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with red cushioning, speaking into a microphone on a stand. The figure wears a flowing orange-saffron robe and a long necklace, with long dark hair swept back, and is barefoot. Two men in white clothes sit on a white-covered platform beside the throne; one wears a dark cord necklace and smiles. A standing fan, a dark blue curtain, a red-and-gold fabric hanging, a striped garland and a red backdrop with gold patterns fill the hall. The figure has distinctive long hair and saffron robes but the appearance is uncertain, so this is an unsure candidate; the scene is a seated satsang-style address on a dais.2007-02-24February 24 20072007-02-24
