June 22 20082008-06-22Close-up photograph of a man with long dark hair swept back, a red bindi and white tilak on his forehead, wearing a large white flower garland and a red garment at the shoulder. Warm amber lighting against a pale wall. In the foreground, the blurred shoulders and white-sleeved arms of two people, one with a raised hand, suggest a ritual or blessing. The face shows an expression of calm and gaze downward. Appearance is consistent with a long-haired, garlanded guru figure, but identity is not established from the face alone.2008-06-22June 22 20082008-06-22June 22 20082008-06-22A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange-red garment with a white jasmine garland draped around his neck, a red tilak on his forehead and white ash marks. He gazes forward while a man in a light grey button-up shirt, seen from behind with his head partly visible, reaches toward him with his arms extended. A large pale circular backdrop glows behind them. Swamiji (probable) is identified by long swept-back hair, orange clothing and a garland; he is the central figure receiving the embrace.2008-06-22A photograph in warm, reddish lighting shows a man with long dark hair swept back, a red bindi and white vertical marks on his forehead, wearing a white floral garland of large white flowers around his neck and an orange garment over his shoulder. He gazes toward the viewer's left, close in the frame. In the foreground at left, the back of another man's head and shoulders in a white shirt is visible.2008-06-22June 22 20082008-06-22June 22 20082008-06-22June 22 20082008-06-22June 22 20082008-06-22June 22 20082008-06-22Close photograph in warm, low light of a man with long hair swept back, a red and white tilak on his forehead, and a thick white flower garland around his neck, wearing an orange garment. In the foreground, a man seen from behind in a light grey-white cloth and a rudraksha-style mala holds up a dark object near the garlanded man's face. The garlanded man looks down toward the foreground with a serious expression. Cues are consistent with the page's claim, with long swept-back hair, orange clothing, a garland and a tilak, but appearance alone is not conclusive, so the candidate is marked unsure. Setting appears to be an indoor event with a pale wall behind.2008-06-22
