Close-up photograph of a person's open right palm holding a single small dark brown rudraksha bead at the centre. The wrist wears a dark beaded bracelet with a gold-toned clasp and a tassel. The arm is covered in a pink fabric with a sparkly paisley pattern, and white fabric lies below. Plain white background with soft lighting. No face is visible, and no one is identifiable from this view.2011-08-15November 10 20102010-11-10July 18 20112011-07-18April 28 20182018-04-28 +1 copiesJuly 15 20112011-07-15January 14 20182018-01-14Close photo of an outstretched hand palm-up holding a single small brown rudraksha bead, with a gold-toned bangle on the wrist. The arm wears an orange saffron-coloured sleeve, and to the right a second person in a pink, teal and gold embroidered sari sits with hands in lap. Pale pink and lime-green cloth covers the floor beneath, with a grey-speckled mat in the lower centre. Only the arms and hands of people are visible, so no whole person or face can be seen.2017-01-15December 17 20172017-12-17 +1 copiesClose-up photograph of a seated person in a rust-orange robe, with a hand held palm-up showing a few small yellow grains. The figure wears multiple heavy rudraksha mala necklaces of large brown beads and a rudraksha bracelet on the wrist, with a finer bead mala looped over the lap. The background is blurred with warm daylight tones. Only the torso, arms and hand are visible, so no face is shown and no identity can be confirmed from appearance.2018-04-28 +1 copiesA photograph of a man seated on a leopard-print cushioned chair before an ornate gold-leaf backdrop, speaking into a microphone on a boom stand. He wears a leopard-print turban, long dreadlocked hair swept back, a red tilak on his forehead, gold earrings and a long string of rudraksha malas over an orange-red robe, with a gold necklace visible at his chest. His right hand is raised in a gesture of explanation. Probable Swamiji (appearance-based label): the visible cues are the leopard-print turban, long hair, rudraksha malas and orange robe, and he is seated as a speaker giving a discourse.2017-08-27Close photo of hands in a ritual exchange. A man in an orange-red robe wears layered rudraksha malas and rudraksha bracelets, his hands cupped and holding a small white ornate object, possibly a spoon or ritual implement. Another person's hand, wearing a red thread bracelet, a silver bangle and a gold ring, extends the white object toward him. A second robed figure with white tilak-like markings is partly visible at the upper right. The setting is outdoors in warm sunlight.2018-04-28March 12 20182018-03-12
