A photograph taken inside a large open-sided hall with a corrugated metal roof and steel beams. In the foreground, a man with long dark hair tied back wears a sleeveless saffron-orange garment and touches the shoulder of a young boy in a yellow shirt and red rudraksha mala who smiles and raises a hand to his own neck. Behind them, several women in white and cream saris, one in a red-and-black sari with a red bindi, stand among a crowd of seated devotees. The scene suggests a darshan moment. Swamiji (probable): the man in saffron with long swept-back hair and a rudraksha mala is a probable candidate for Swamiji, shown giving blessings to the boy. A small logo appears in the upper left corner.

A photograph inside a large hall with a corrugated metal roof and steel beams, with a crowd seated on chairs in the background. In the foreground a man with long swept-back dark hair wearing a sleeveless saffron-orange garment with a red-orange cloth draped over his shoulder places his right hand on the head of a young man in a yellow shirt with a red rudraksha mala and a name badge. The young man bows his head with hands clasped. Other people in white, yellow and red clothing stand nearby, and an elderly man in white with a yellow shawl appears at the left edge. The man in saffron has distinctive long hair and saffron clothing, a compatible presentation for the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable appearance-based candidate performing a blessing on a devotee.2010-02-14A photograph of a man in an orange sleeveless robe with long dark hair swept back, placing his right palm on the forehead of a young man in a white shirt with a beaded rudraksha-style mala and bangles.
