July 19 20092009-07-19A traditional South Indian sadya-style meal is arranged on a large green banana leaf laid over a clear plastic sheet on the floor. Servings of vegetable curries, a yellow dish, a thick pale chutney-like paste, rice, a tangy orange relish and a small mound of pickle are placed along the leaf. Two small white paper cups sit beside it. The leaf is bordered by strings of white jasmine flowers and red and orange roses, with more roses clustered on the right. Blurred figures in white clothing and a sitting person in white are in the background, but no one is clearly in focus. No a person candidate is visible.2009-07-19July 14 20132013-07-14 +1 copiesMay 17 20142014-05-17A photograph of a seated man in orange saffron robes at a puja, wearing a long garland of red flowers, white blossoms and green leaves, with a red tilak on his forehead and long dark hair. He sits on a low wooden seat with a white cloth, hands resting on his knees, before a banana leaf laid with rice, vegetables, fruit and a steel tumbler. A wooden staff lies beside him, and a stainless steel dish sits at left. Behind him is a grey concrete wall with a poster of a woman in white and a red bar. A second person in white sits at the right edge. The orange-robed man has distinctive long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beads, so he is a probable Swamiji candidate; the photo is in person.2006-10-12October 12 20062006-10-12December 11 20112011-12-11Photograph of a long table set with green banana leaves holding portions of rice, white rice mounds, brown and green side dishes, pickles, fried snacks and a dried fruit or date piece, alongside rows of paper cups with red and white patterns and clear plastic cups with straws.
