A long-haired figure in an orange and green saffron-toned silk garment sits on a red-and-maroon tiger-striped cushion and reaches forward to touch the head of a small boy in a white sleeveless top. Behind them, a golden deity murti stands among red, white and green floral garlands. A shaven-headed man in white dhoti with a sacred thread and rudraksha mala sits nearby, and another man in white and a child in green stand in the background. Appearance is consistent with the Swamiji candidate, with long swept-back hair, ornate saffron clothing and rudraksha cues, so the blessing scene suggests a darshan moment, though identity remains probable only.2012-04-23A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange saffron garment with a rudraksha mala draped over his bare chest, seated and reaching forward to hold a small hand of a young child in a white and purple top. Behind them are gold-coloured ceremonial objects and draped garlands in orange, pink and green fabrics. A woman in a red-bordered sari sits at the right edge.

Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure, identified by the long hair, orange clothing and rudraksha mala. In the foreground a second person in pale orange clothing bends forward. Behind them stand ornate gold vessels, a gold kalasha and a red and gold metal gate, with greenery visible beyond. The scene suggests a blessing being given.2010-07-17A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a draped orange shawl, with long hair tied back, rudraksha mala beads around his neck and a red tilak on his forehead, smiles while extending his hand toward a young girl in a grey top with a beaded necklace who holds out her palms.

He extends his hand to a young girl in a navy top with a pink hair tie, who is reaching toward him while a woman in a white top with gold-trimmed clothing stands beside her. Behind them, a cameraman operates a tripod-mounted video camera, and several people in white and grey clothes stand in the background near a white tower fan and a potted plant. The man matches the appearance cues of the Swamiji candidate, with long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and orange robes, so the identification is probable. He is physically present in the scene. Five or more people are visible, including partially visible figures in the background.2011-12-03August 02 20102010-08-02 +1 copiesA seated man in saffron-orange robes with a swept-back hairstyle and a white tilak on his forehead sits on a red-and-gold throne draped in silver-patterned fabric, reaching down to touch the head of a small girl in a pink dress who kneels before him with a rudraksha mala hanging from her neck.
