A seated man with long dark hair in a low knot wears a gold-and-red garment and a layered gold bead necklace with rudraksha-style beads. He sits on a red cushioned seat beside an ornate gold throne and places both hands on the forehead of an elderly white-bearded man with long white hair, who wears an orange robe and bows forward. The setting is an indoor hall with a plain wall, a curtain and a small lectern-like stand. Two people are visible: the seated figure with raised hands and the bowing elder. Appearance-based cues on the seated man include the long swept-back hair, gold ceremonial necklace and gold-and-saffron clothing, so he is labelled Swamiji (probable) and marked in_person.2014-01-11January 11 20142014-01-11January 12 20142014-01-12January 16 20142014-01-16February 07 20142014-02-07January 22 20142014-01-22A seated man with long dark hair tied in a bun, wearing a bare-chested orange-and-gold dhoti-style garment, a layered rudraksha and gold bead necklace, and a vertical tilak on his forehead, places both hands on the head of an older bearded man with long white hair. The older man, dressed in an orange robe, bows forward with his eyes closed. The seated figure sits on a gold-carved throne with red upholstery in a warmly lit room.2014-01-11A photo of a ceremonial blessing. A figure with long black hair, a white vibhuti mark on the forehead, and a pink-white-green garland sits on the left wearing a tiger-striped yellow and black garment with a brown sash and gold bangles, and places a hand on the head of a seated older man with short grey hair. The older man wears a deep red and orange shawl and is bowing his head. Behind them a standing figure in a peach and orange sari with a rudraksha mala is visible, and a golden kalasha-style vessel and a maroon cushioned seat appear in the setting. Several onlookers stand in the background. The seated figure wearing the striped garment matches several appearance cues, with long swept-back hair, garland and gold adornments, but the appearance is not conclusive, so the identity is recorded as unsure.2012-12-16January 06 20142014-01-06July 21 20142014-07-21April 25 20142014-04-25March 25 20132013-03-25
