A seated figure on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, wearing an orange robe, a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace, a white tilak on the forehead, and long dark hair; the figure raises both hands in greeting and smiles. A tall staff wrapped with cord leans beside the throne. Behind is a backdrop of a rocky mountain in pink and red tones. Flower arrangements in vases and a lit oil lamp sit nearby. In the foreground, devotees sit in white and red clothing, one holding a lit candle, with offering plates of fruit and flowers before them. A man in white with a red shawl sits to the right with palms joined in prayer, and a woman in a sari sits at the far right. The identity of the central figure is uncertain from appearance alone.

September 07 20122012-09-07A photo of a satsang on a raised stage. A man with a long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, a rudraksha mala and a flower garland of white, yellow and purple blossoms sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne, gesturing with one hand toward a woman. The man has a crown-like headdress look absent; his appearance matches Swamiji (probable) by long hair, saffron robes, rudraksha mala and ceremonial garland. A silver trident stands beside the throne and a gold parasol hangs at the top left. A woman in a white top with an orange shawl holds a silver tray before him, and a man in white sits at the left edge. Behind the stage, a backdrop shows an old temple scene and a large image of a figure holding a torch against orange flames. Several seated people in orange and white are visible at the bottom.2014-05-17September 10 20122012-09-10September 07 20122012-09-07April 16 20122012-04-16February 19 20132013-02-19Photo of a ceremonial event in a hall. A figure with a shaved-looking head and a tilak mark sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne, wearing orange-saffron robes and a long multicolour flower garland with rudraksha beads, and holds hands loosely in lap. A woman in white clothes with an orange-saffron shawl stands at right holding a silver tray. At left a bald man in white with glasses sits near the throne, and in the foreground several people in orange and saffron clothing sit, including a child. A silver trident stands beside the throne, a gold canopy hangs at upper left, and a backdrop shows a black-and-white temple image and a large orange-flame poster with a figure raising a ritual implement. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with a person but is not clearly distinctive, so identity is uncertain. Total visible people: about 7.2014-05-17June 05 20112011-06-05September 10 20122012-09-10September 16 20122012-09-16A seated man in an ornate gilded throne with red cushions wears orange robes with a maroon-and-gold shawl, rudraksha mala beads, a gold necklace and gold armbands, and sits with his hands resting in his lap. Beside him on a gold stand are flower petals and a small lamp. Several devotees sit on the floor before him: a woman in a white sari with a gold border, a woman in a cream sari with a green-clad younger woman behind her, and bald-headed people in the foreground with hands folded in prayer. A gold-framed flag with a blue and red emblem hangs behind the throne, and microphones sit on the right.2011-02-11A photograph of a satsang stage with a man seated on an ornate gold throne with red cushions. He wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, a long rudraksha mala and a gold pendant, with a white forehead band and long swept-back hair; this appearance matches the page's Swamiji cues, so he is a probable Swamiji. Beside the throne a man in white shirt and red shawl sits with folded hands, and at the front devotees in white and red-bordered saris and a man in a white t-shirt are seated before brass trays of flowers and offerings. Vases of orange and white flowers flank the throne against a pink rocky-mountain backdrop.2012-09-07
