The seated figure wears long rudraksha-style beaded malas, gold bangles on the upper arm and wrist, and a red tilak, and smiles while holding an open printed booklet with a photograph on its cover. Behind them, a gilded golden throne or altar backdrop and an orange cloth are visible. The kneeling man wears glasses and red and gold wrist threads. This appears to be a padapuja-style blessing with personal touch.2011-12-10January 08 20122012-01-08A man in an orange turban with a red bindi and an orange shawl, wearing a multi-strand necklace of gold-toned beads and rudraksha-style beads, sits beside a red throne draped with white and red flower garlands. He rests one hand on the shoulder of a bald, grey-haired man in a light blue shirt seen from behind, who is bowed toward him. An oil lamp with a lit flame stands in the background near a gold-toned deity murti. The orange-clad man is an appearance-based a person with several qualifying cues: orange turban, ornate beaded necklace and saffron clothing, placed in a blessing gesture of padapuja-style or darshan-style giving of blessings. Two people are visible.2012-02-07October 29 20112011-10-29A seated man in an orange turban, orange shawl with gold border, and a red and white garland of flowers with black rudraksha beads smiles while a man in a white shirt sits in front of him with palms pressed together in greeting. Behind them stands a backdrop of red fairy lights, yellow marigold strands and white and red flowers, with a silver ceremonial staff at left and a striped throne cushion at right. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure in orange turban, orange shawl, rudraksha mala and gold necklace matches the page's claim and the throne setting.2012-03-30October 29 20112011-10-29October 29 20112011-10-29 +1 copiesA photo of a seated man in saffron-orange robes on an ornate gold-carved throne with red cushions. He wears white and red-and-purple flower garlands and a red tilak on his forehead, with long swept-back hair. A man in a white-and-grey checked shirt and grey trousers stands at left, reaching out with both hands to the seated figure in a gesture of respect. At left edge, another person in orange garments is partly visible. Behind the throne, a large deity murti in orange drapery is garlanded with yellow and purple flowers, and brass lamps stand in the background. Probable Swamiji (appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron robes, garlands, throne) is seated in person, receiving the devotee's gesture.2010-08-01A photograph at an outdoor evening event under a canopy.
