December 22 20172017-12-22A photograph of a yoga or energy session on a red-lit stage. A long-haired man with dreadlocks, wearing a leopard-print sleeveless garment, reaches toward a second man in a beige kurta with a rudraksha mala. The standing man has one palm raised toward the other's face and a hand near his chest. A silver-and-gold ceremonial staff stands in the foreground and a leopard-print drape hangs behind. The bearded figure with dreadlocks has distinctive long hair and a leopard-print garment, but his appearance is not a clear cue for the page's a person claim, so the identity is unsure.2017-12-22A photograph of a ceremony in a red-lit hall. A long-haired man in a leopard-print sleeveless top, with long dreadlock-like hair, stands at right holding a twisted silver-and-gold staff upright and reaching toward a man at left. The man at left wears a checked light shirt, a long red rudraksha mala and a small pendant, and raises his palms in receiving gesture. Another person in white stands behind, with a blurred figure at far left. A distinctive appearance-based candidate with long swept hair, leopard-print clothing and a ceremonial staff fits the page's a person reference, so he is labelled a probable Swamiji in this sentence with the role of ritual officiant. The background shows red drapes and a leopard-skin-draped stand.2017-12-22December 22 20172017-12-22December 22 20172017-12-22September 06 20122012-09-06July 04 20162016-07-04December 22 20172017-12-22March 16 20132013-03-16July 13 20162016-07-13A bare-chested man with long dark locks, a white vibhuti stripe on his forehead, a white and red flower garland and a rudraksha-style brown shawl places his right hand on the forehead of an older, grey-haired man in a white collared shirt with a red-and-orange lanyard, who presses his palms together in reverence. A tall gold pole stands between them against a dark red drape. The bare-chested figure has distinctive long hair, garland and ornaments, so he is a person candidate receiving the other man in a blessing; a second partially visible person stands at the left edge.2016-07-01A photo of two men at close range in a red-draped hall. On the left, a man with long dark hair in a bun, bare-shouldered and wearing an orange-red cloth with a gold chain necklace and a white tilak on his forehead, extends his right hand to touch the forehead of a bald man on the right, who wears a plain white kurta. Behind them is a golden deity murti or ornate figure, and a lit oil lamp hangs at the left edge. Bamboo screens and a partially visible seated figure appear in the background. A man in orange-red clothing giving a blessing with his palm on another's head suggests a darshan or blessing moment.2014-07-15
