The man in the turban and gold-bordered shawl has a long gold pendant and a rudraksha mala, and a monk in orange robes stands at right holding a tray of offerings, while onlookers in white and colourful clothes watch in an indoor hall. The scene suggests a blessing being given. A man in the turban and ceremonial gold necklace matches a distinctive presentation, and the page indicates Swamiji attended, so this is Swamiji (probable) giving a blessing to a devotee.2012-04-09 +1 copiesA photograph of a ceremonial scene indoors.

Behind them several other people in white and red head coverings are visible.2016-10-16
