Opposite, a kneeling man in a white kurta with an orange shawl over his shoulder raises his right hand in a gesture of reverence toward him. A red-and-black striped cushion and an orange cloth lie in the foreground, with a pale wall behind. Swamiji (probable) appears as the seated figure based on long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala; the kneeling devotee is shown in white with an orange shawl.2012-04-19April 15 20122012-04-15April 14 20122012-04-14 +1 copiesA photograph of two men in a bright interior facing each other closely.

On the left, a bare-chested man with long swept-back dark hair and a braided plait sits on a gold-ornamented seat, wearing a rust-orange wrap with a yellow-gold border, a red bindi and white forehead marks, smiling broadly. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, saffron/orange wrap, ornate gold seat and forehead markings. His outstretched arm reaches toward a shaven-headed man on the right in a white kurta, who raises both palms toward the seated figure's forehead and smiles. The right man wears a red lanyard badge. Behind them are a black speaker, a white screen and red-cushioned chairs.2013-12-13A photograph taken on a stage at an indoor event. A person with long, swept-back dark hair and a small red bindi wears an orange-saffron shawl draped over the body, seated on a white-covered chair with orange cushions. Facing them, an older man with grey hair wears a white shirt and a wristwatch, with an orange-and-black beaded necklace, and holds his palms together in a namaskar gesture. Behind them hangs a dark blue curtain, and at the right edge a colourful textile hanging with yellow and green patterns is visible. Two people are physically present.A photograph of a satsang setting. A figure with long, swept-back dark hair wears an orange-saffron shawl draped over the shoulders and sits on a cushioned seat beside a microphone and a small wooden table with flowers and an orange towel. Facing this figure, a man with short grey-streaked hair and a moustache, dressed in a white shirt and white trousers, sits close and gestures with his hands in a discussion gesture. Behind them a person in red clothing is partly visible at the right edge. The probable Swamiji cues are long hair and orange-saffron shawl, so the seated figure is listed as probable.2011-01-21A photograph of a seated man in an orange-red robe with a gold-yellow border and a rudraksha bead necklace, with a white tilak on his forehead and hair tied back, placing his right palm on the forehead of a short-haired man in a blue-and-white striped shirt with a wristwatch, who leans forward with his eyes closed. A bright screen and red curtain are in the background, and gold ritual items are at the left edge. The gesture resembles a blessing or darshan. Appearance-based identity is uncertain, so the seated figure is described by role only.2014-01-03
