A photograph of a blessing at an indoor evening event. A man in orange robes with long dark hair pulled back places his right hand on the crown of a man in a white shirt, whose eyes are closed and palms are pressed together at his forehead. A woman with hair tied back in a white top and a second man in a striped white shirt with folded hands stand close by, with a crowd and bright stage lights behind them. The robed figure has a long bare arm and an orange cloth, and appears to be Swamiji (probable) based on the orange robes and long hair, while the blessing is given to a devotee.
