A man with long dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a large carved halo-like backrest, speaking and gesturing with one raised hand. He wears a rust-red robe over a red garment with an orange border, a rudraksha mala draped across his chest and a pendant necklace. Behind him are gold-patterned walls, a trident-shaped ornament at left, and flower garlands and a roses arrangement at the sides of the stage. Appearance-based label: a person, seated in the central role on the throne, identified by long swept hair, rudraksha mala and ornate gold seating.2015-12-26September 10 20112011-09-10November 20 20172017-11-20March 28 20162016-03-28A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver throne with carved floral and scroll patterns, draped with leopard-print cushions and flanked by silver lion figures. He wears a golden crown, a red-orange saffron robe, a long white and pink flower garland, layered rudraksha malas on his arms and chest, a gold ceremonial necklace, and a red-orange vertical mark on his forehead. He sits with hands together in front of him and smiles. A bright orange cup sits on a silver stand beside him, and a backdrop shows a painted temple tower. The clothing and crown cues are distinctive, and the page identifies this event as Swamiji's, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in person on the throne.2017-09-26 +1 copiesA seated man in an ornate silver throne with leopard-print upholstery and carved lion-head armrests, raising his right hand in blessing.

He wears an orange-saffron robe draped over one shoulder, a long multi-strand gold necklace, a gold armlet and bangles, and has an upswept dark turban-style hairstyle with a red bindi. His eyes are closed in quiet absorption. Behind him stands a tall yellow-and-white striped ritual pillar topped with a disc, and to the right are floral garlands in orange and pink marigolds and ornate decorative objects. Probable Swamiji is the figure depicted in these visual cues, with his distinctive long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ceremonial gold necklace, standing in an in-person ceremonial setting.2015-12-25January 30 20162016-01-30
