A seated figure in a saffron-orange robe with a matching turban and a multi-strand rudraksha-style bead necklace sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, a tiger-striped cloth draped over its base, before a magenta backdrop of carved temple figures. A bald priest in an orange dhoti with a gold border, a beaded bracelet and a bead mala stands at left, raising a silver multi-branched lamp in an aarti gesture. Brass oil lamps and a trident stand on either side of the throne, and a red valance hangs across the top. Probable Swamiji (saffron robe, turban and ceremonial gold-bead necklace on the throne) being honoured with lamp aarti during a satsang setting.2015-10-09October 11 20152015-10-11A photograph of an aarti being offered on a raised red-and-gold throne platform. A long-haired man in saffron-orange robes, rudraksha-style necklaces and gold armbands sits on a red throne with a gold crown-like backrest and lion-shaped armrests, smiling with raised hands. In the foreground a bald, shaved-headed priest in orange robes holds a lit lamp (aarti) toward him. Gold oil lamps with rooster-topped finials flank the throne against a painted cosmic backdrop of red and orange clouds and stars. A small offering tray and cushioned platform sit at the front. The seated man's identity is uncertain from appearance alone; the page lists a person at this event, so he is a probable match with the distinctive long hair, saffron robes and ornate necklaces on a throne, but the face is not the basis for this label.2012-09-29A seated man sits on an ornate gold-carved throne with a rounded back, draped with a tiger-skin rug and dark red cushions. He wears a red-and-orange turban, a saffron-orange garment over red trousers, and a long ceremonial necklace with a gold pendant and rudraksha beads. Gold oil lamps flank the throne, with a golden trident leaning beside it, and a purple backdrop shows a deity murti of Durga-like form within a painted scene. A red mat lies on the wooden stage floor. The appearance of the seated figure is consistent with the a person cues of turban, saffron-orange clothing, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold, but the page does not state he is at this event, so the identification is uncertain.2015-08-07October 13 20152015-10-13September 24 20122012-09-24October 12 20152015-10-12October 11 20152015-10-11October 16 20152015-10-16January 13 20132013-01-13A seated teacher sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a tiger-striped cloth draped over its seat and crimson cushions on either side. He wears a red-orange turban with a white emblem, a red-orange robe with yellow trim, a rudraksha mala with a large pendant, and armbands. A microphone on a stand is at his face. Golden lamp stands with bird finials flank the throne, a golden trident stands behind it, and a red-and-pink painted backdrop shows a figure with folded hands. A red carpet covers the floor.2015-10-12 +2 copiesA seated man on an ornate gold throne with red cushions smiles broadly, hands pressed together in greeting. He wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, a multi-strand white beaded necklace, gold chains, bangles and a forehead tilak with a red bindu. Another man in orange robes stands at left holding a lit oil lamp with flames toward the throne. Blue and pink painted pillars with a gold trident and deity figures frame the scene, with hanging brass lamps above and brass oil lamps at right. Two women in orange clothing sit at the lower right edge.2013-01-13
