A photograph of a close, intimate moment on a stage at night. A figure in orange robes with long dark curly hair tied back in a bun presses one hand onto the forehead of a man with short dark curly hair and a moustache, who has his eyes closed and a pained, absorbed expression. The man wears an orange top over a dark striped shirt. At the left edge, a man in a white garment with a yellow shawl and a thin cord stands partly visible. Behind them is a dark stage backdrop with stage lighting.2009-11-17 +1 copiesDecember 12 20092009-12-12A photograph of an adult man with long, swept-back dark hair wearing a sleeveless saffron-orange top, standing in profile on the right and placing his right hand on the forehead of a young boy with short brown hair in a green-and-grey plaid hooded jacket. The man's left arm rests around the boy's shoulder. The background is a pale wall with a blurred blue and purple backdrop at the right edge. The man is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate: long swept-back hair and saffron clothing, with the page stating he was present at this event, so he is labelled Swamiji (probable), appearing in person and blessing the boy.2011-12-02November 22 20092009-11-22A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange saffron garment with a red bindi, placing his right hand on the forehead of a younger man in a green and brown striped kurta with a lanyard.
