A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne, wearing an orange saffron robe and a rudraksha mala, with long swept-back hair, extending a hand in blessing toward a kneeling man. The kneeling man wears a white dhoti with a gold border and no shirt, his hands pressed together in namaste, and appears to be receiving a blessing. Behind them, a person in a white dhoti stands near a doorway, and a few people in white and orange clothing stand on the left side of an orange-walled hall. A black board with white lettering hangs on the wall, a golden lamp stand is visible at the right, and a stone pillar carved with figures stands beside the throne. Orange and red cloth hangs from a pole, and red carpeting covers the floor.2010-11-03A photograph of a ceremonial scene in an open temple courtyard. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long swept-back dark hair, a rudraksha mala around the neck and a red-and-gold ornate throne is smiling and holding a microphone, with an orange cloth folded on the lap, and a figure in a saffron shawl sits at the lower left. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala on the seated throne figure. A devotee in white dhoti kneels at the foot of the throne offering a gesture, and a man in a saffron shawl kneels beside him. Several people in white and saffron clothing stand in the background near an orange building, and a deity murti with floral garlands is at the right edge.2010-11-03May 11 20122012-05-11A photograph of a ceremony in an outdoor temple-style courtyard with red-painted walls and a corrugated roof. A long-haired figure in orange-saffron robes with rudraksha malas sits on an ornate gold and red-cushioned throne. A kneeling man in white dhoti and shirt, with a thin gold border and a neck cord, leans forward and touches the seated figure's feet on a red footstool. Behind them, standing devotees in white and orange clothing watch with hands folded. Gold-decorated pillars, a brass lamp stand and a tray of fruit are visible. The seated figure matches the Swamiji (probable) cues of long swept-back hair, saffron robes and rudraksha malas, and is shown in the role of a seated guru receiving padapuja.2010-11-03February 24 20072007-02-24May 08 20122012-05-08August 10 20112011-08-10A photograph of a temple courtyard where a long-haired figure in orange robes and a rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a red cushion, a footstool in front and a microphone stand beside. Before him, a man in white dhoti and shawl kneels on a red carpet, while another man in orange sits near the throne. In the background, women in orange and white saris and men in white dhotis walk through a doorway, and a gilded deity murti decorated with garlands and brass lamps stands behind. A fruit offering rests on a table beside the throne.2010-11-03August 10 20112011-08-10December 13 20112011-12-13July 16 20192019-07-16November 20 20092009-11-20
