A seated man in saffron robes and an orange turban sits on an ornate dark wooden throne with brown cushions, wearing a white and orange flower garland and a red bead garland, waving with his right hand. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands beside the throne with hands clasped, and a man in white kurta stands at right. A woman in a blue sari stands at left near a microphone stand, and an orange-robed attendant stands behind, with a brass tray of flowers before the throne. Behind them is a large backdrop with a sunburst and a painted portrait of a figure in an orange head wrap. The visible central figure has the saffron robes, orange turban and garlands of a person candidate, but the face is not clear enough for a firm identification.

April 01 20122012-04-01A seated man in an orange-saffron turban with a jewelled ornament and a red tilak on his forehead waves his right hand while smiling. He wears an orange robe, layered white and red garland necklaces, a rudraksha-style gold chain, and gold armbands, and sits on an ornate dark-wood and cream upholstered throne. Beside him stands an older man in a white short-sleeved shirt with a rudraksha mala and a name badge, hands clasped and smiling. Behind them a red garland drapes over the chair back, and a second person in orange robes is partly visible at the left edge. The warm golden bokeh backdrop suggests a stage event. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's saffron turban, orange robe, garlands and throne presentation fit the page's Swamiji reference.2012-04-01A seated figure in an orange saffron robe with a long orange shawl and a wooden bead necklace sits on a gold upholstered throne with carved black armrests, smiling, with long dark hair swept back and a red bindi. A man in a white kurta kneels before the throne on the stage, clasping the seated figure's hand and offering something. A second man in orange kneels to the left wearing a garland, and another orange-clad attendant stands behind. Marigold flowers lie on the stage, and a microphone stand stands at right against a pastel painted backdrop. The seated figure has distinctive long hair, saffron robes and a bead necklace, a Swamiji (probable) cue, presented as the honoured figure on the throne.2010-02-12July 15 20112011-07-15A photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long dark hair, a rudraksha mala and a silver-coloured ceremonial necklace, on a red cushioned seat before an ornate gold throne with flower garlands.

Behind them a robed attendant in orange stands with a tilak, and a golden lion-form decoration sits on the seat. Purple flowers lie at the front. The seated figure's appearance does not clearly establish identity, so the presence is recorded as unsure.2008-10-08Photograph of a darshan moment on a stage decorated with orange and red marigold garlands and a gilded throne. A seated figure with long dark wavy hair wears a flowing red-orange robe and touches palms with a bald, older man in a white shirt and white dhoti who bows and clasps the seated figure's hands. Two young men in orange robes stand at left, one wearing a rudraksha mala. A white sheet of paper rests on the throne's red cushion.
