A kneeling man in a white checked shirt and white dhoti, with a rudraksha mala, has his forehead touched by a long-haired figure in orange robes with a rudraksha mala, seated on a white cloth beside a small red-bordered rug and a white towel with flower petals. Around them, men in white shirts and white dhotis, several wearing rudraksha malas, stand and watch, one with hands raised in prayer. A man in an orange cloth stands at the right edge, and an older man in white with an orange-and-white cord stands at the left. Garlands hang in the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated orange-robed figure has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, consistent with the page, so this is an appearance-based candidate.2006-07-12March 11 20172017-03-11Outdoor photo of a seated figure in an orange turban and orange robe, shown from behind, on a red carpet with a floral rangoli pattern. Around them, several men in white kurta and dhoti or white shirts stand and bend forward, one crouching at right touching the carpet. A man in a purple checked shirt and grey trousers reaches forward, and a young man at right wears a white kurta with an orange shawl. A golden deity murti stands in the background near white draped canopy fabric. The scene appears to be a devotee gathering with respectful bowing.2006-12-31November 19 20062006-11-19January 03 20122012-01-03Outdoor ground-breaking ritual under a canopy of green leaves and red-and-black striped cloth. A seated man in an orange robe with long hair and a white flower garland presses his palms together in prayer, while a younger man in white with curly hair and an orange shawl leans forward to offer from a silver plate. Behind them, a deity murti draped in flower garlands sits on a raised platform with a kalasha and lamps. Seated and standing devotees in white dhotis and shirts fold their hands, and yellow turmeric-coloured blocks lie on blue cloth in the foreground. Several people in white ritual dress stand along the back.2006-11-24December 16 20102010-12-16July 07 20092009-07-07
