May 13 20132013-05-13May 13 20132013-05-13A photograph of a seated man on a large gold throne with an ornate arched backrest, dressed in saffron-orange robes with rudraksha malas, a gold necklace with a snake pendant, and long swept-back hair. He is receiving a garland of white, yellow, green and red flowers draped over his shoulders. A devotee in white clothes with an orange sash bends low before him, while a saffron-robed priest with a white forehead mark and rudraksha beads stands at left holding a yellow cloth-wrapped object. A tiger-striped cloth covers the seat, and a gold deity murti stands in the background.2013-05-13A seated man in a dark red-brown robe sits on an ornate gold throne with a tiger-striped cloth draped over its base. He wears a long rudraksha mala, a gold necklace with a pendant, and a multi-coloured flower garland with red, white and yellow blossoms. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands behind the throne, pressing a golden kalasha or pot to the seated man's forehead in a blessing gesture. To the left, a bald man with white tilak marks and rudraksha beads, wearing a red-brown garment, smiles beside a standing man in white with an orange waist cloth. A painted deity figure with a crown appears in the background behind the throne, and gold ornamentation fills the right edge. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace, and sits on the throne being honoured, so he is shown in person.2013-05-13May 13 20132013-05-13May 13 20132013-05-13May 13 20132013-05-13A photograph of a ceremonial scene in a gold-ornamented hall. A seated man in saffron-orange clothing with rudraksha malas and a gold chain sits on a gilded throne draped with a striped tiger skin, while a man in white dhoti and shirt drapes a long garland of green, red and white flowers over his shoulders. Behind them, a deity murti with a gold crown stands before a painted backdrop with pink lotus-topped pillars. Several priests in white dhotis and orange-red sashes attend nearby, one bare-chested with sacred markings, and a woman in a white sari with a green cloth leans in to assist. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and a gold necklace, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, so the appearance is a cue but not fully confirmed.2013-05-13May 13 20132013-05-13November 14 20132013-11-14February 05 20142014-02-05A seated man in an orange-saffron robe sits on an ornate gold throne heavily decorated with yellow, orange and red marigold garlands. He wears a gold-beaded necklace and a rudraksha mala with a saffron-orange garment, and smiles as a man in a white shirt and white trousers lifts a white-and-black ceremonial cap or pot over his head. Two saffron-robed attendants stand to the left, one wearing a long mala, and a woman in white kneels at the lower left. A golden footstool sits in front of the throne, and a small wooden shrine-like structure with carved frame stands in the background.2011-12-20
