A man in an orange saffron robe with a dark rudraksha mala and a red tilak on his forehead, hair tied back in a bun, extends his right hand to rest on the head of a seated man in a white shirt. A tall brass oil lamp with a lit flame stands behind them, and a colourful cosmic-light backdrop with a dark curtain fills the background. The blessing gesture suggests a darshan or blessing moment.2011-09-17November 25 20112011-11-25A photograph of a seated man in an orange saffron shawl draped over one shoulder, with a long rudraksha mala around his neck and a red bindi on his forehead, leaning forward with his right arm extended to rest a hand on the upturned head of a man in a white shirt whose arms are raised overhead. The seated man has long swept-back hair and wears a distinctive saffron wrap and rudraksha beads, cues consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji (probable), who appears to be giving a blessing. Behind them is an ornate gold throne-like chair with red velvet cushions and a colourful blurred backdrop with a gold figurine.2011-11-25November 20 20112011-11-20 +1 copiesSeptember 17 20112011-09-17A man in saffron-orange robes sits on a red velvet throne with gold filigree back, wearing a long dark rudraksha mala and a red tilak on his forehead. His right hand is raised to the forehead of a young man in a pink collared shirt who leans in with both hands raised. A brass oil lamp stands at right, a water bottle sits behind the throne, and a colourful light-burst backdrop fills the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, saffron robes and rudraksha malas, matching a sannyasi giving blessing in this setting.2011-09-17November 25 20112011-11-25 +1 copiesNovember 29 20112011-11-29July 14 20142014-07-14A long-haired man in saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala sits on a red upholstered throne-like seat, smiling as he touches the forehead of a seated man in a black-and-white striped jacket. White ash marks and a red bindi adorn his forehead, and a rudraksha bracelet is on his wrist. Beside them stands a large ornate gold oil lamp and a basket of apples on a gold tray, with a dark blue drape and a red banner behind. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron robes, rudraksha malas and ceremonial setting fit the page's Swamiji context, so he is labelled probable.2011-02-26December 07 20112011-12-07 +1 copiesApril 29 20122012-04-29
