Behind them stands a deity murti decorated with red and yellow marigold garlands and a golden crown, with a small gold-toned lion-faced figure in the lower left foreground. Two men in white kurta-style clothing stand at right, and a wall of ocean wave photographs in blue and white forms the backdrop. A gold-bordered black cloth and a small red rug sit in front of a low wooden platform with wooden boxes. The seated man appears to be giving a blessing or touch on the forehead.2013-09-02September 02 20132013-09-02A photograph of a ceremonial moment indoors. On the left, a man with long dark hair tied back, wearing a rust-red wrap over the shoulder and a long beaded gold-toned necklace, reaches to touch the forehead of a man on the right. The right man wears a white short-sleeved shirt and a red shawl, and holds his right palm raised toward the other man in a respectful gesture. Beside the left figure stands an ornate gold-trimmed throne with a golden fringed canopy in orange. Blurred figures in white and red clothing move in the background, and a few people are seated along the floor. Padapuja and satsang setting.2013-12-20Indoor photo of a seated man in an orange-brown saffron wrap and rudraksha mala raising his right hand to touch the forehead of a bearded man in a white t-shirt with an orange-and-red shawl and beaded necklace, who has his eyes closed and hands raised in front of him. Behind them stands a deity murti draped in yellow and red garlands with gold ornaments, beside a white floor air conditioner and framed ocean-wave pictures. A woman in a rust-coloured garment sits at the right edge. The scene suggests a blessing being given in a temple-like room.2013-09-02Two men face each other in close, smiling conversation before a shrine of deity murtis draped in red, yellow and orange garlands. On the left, a shaven-headed figure in an ochre-orange robe with a gold-coloured sash and a long rudraksha-style cord blesses the other man, his right hand raised over the other's head. The man on the right wears a white kurta with a red shawl and holds up his left palm. Behind them stand brass vessels, a white floor fan, and wall panels showing ocean waves.2013-09-02A seated man in saffron-and-maroon robes with a gold-toned sash and a long rudraksha-style bead necklace, a white tilak on his forehead, extends his right arm to touch the forehead of a standing man in a white kurta with an orange-red shawl. The standing man's palms are pressed together in a respectful gesture. Behind them, a woman in white stands near ornate gold carvings, brass oil lamps and a lattice panel. A red-upholstered seat and a red-patterned cushion are visible at left, and a fan stands at right.2015-08-23September 13 20132013-09-13September 02 20132013-09-02A photograph of a seated figure with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala draped over an orange-brown robe, placing his palm on the forehead of a standing devotee in a white shirt with a red-orange shawl, while the devotee raises his own palm in blessing. Behind them, an attendant in white dhoti and orange sash stands near a white air-conditioning unit and red curtains, with a red-cushioned seat and an orange towel in the foreground. The seated figure matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of long hair and rudraksha mala, giving a blessing to a devotee at a satsang-style event.2013-05-24
