A photograph of a long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes with a long beaded necklace seated on an ornate red and gold throne. The seated figure has a white marking on the forehead and hands raised to the head. A bald man in a white dhoti-style garment with a red border bows forward, pressing his head against the seated figure's arm. The setting is an indoor event with warm bokeh lights in the background. The seated figure matches the distinctive presentation cues of a person: long swept hair, saffron clothing and a beaded necklace, so the identity is an appearance-based label only. The bowing man in white is a devotee receiving a blessing.2010-10-15July 07 20092009-07-07July 07 20092009-07-07April 19 20122012-04-19January 08 20122012-01-08April 29 20122012-04-29July 07 20092009-07-07A photograph of a devotional greeting on a golden throne. A seated figure with long swept-back dark hair wears orange saffron robes, a pink and white floral garland, and gold ceremonial necklaces; this appearance matches Swamiji (probable) on the page, cued by his long hair, saffron clothing, garland and gold necklaces. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti bends forward to touch his head to the seated figure's hands, with a hand resting on the seated figure's knee. Behind them a shaven-headed monk in orange robes with an orange head cloth stands, and at left a woman in white with a yellow shawl watches. Garlands of orange, red and yellow flowers hang on a golden backdrop with ornate carved gold panels.2009-12-24A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a long gold rudraksha mala with ornate gold necklaces sits on a red velvet throne with gold carved armrests, his right hand extended over the head of a shaved-headed kneeling monk in orange robes who bows forward with hands joined. The seated man has long swept-back hair, a white forehead marking and a red bindi, and wears a draped orange shawl. Red velvet drapes and a gold-carved throne frame the scene, with a small gold figure visible beside the chair. A monk in orange kneels in devotion, receiving a blessing gesture, in what appears to be a darshan or blessing moment.2013-03-07April 19 20122012-04-19A seated figure in an ornate gold throne with a red cushion wears a saffron-orange robe and has long dark hair; he extends his right hand in blessing over the bald head of a kneeling devotee in white ritual dress with a white shawl edged in red-and-white stripes. A green-and-white garland drapes the throne, a gold lion-shaped armrest sits beside it, and a small gold deity murti stands at lower left. A second seated man in white with an orange shawl sits at right, and a red-and-white floral backdrop fills the stage. The kneeling devotee receives blessing in a padapuja-style gesture on the stage.2007-02-24A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a long orange rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders sits on an ornate gold throne with a deep red velvet cushion. He has long dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead, and his hands rest on the armrest. In front of the throne, a man in a white shirt and white dhoti kneels low on a red cloth, bending forward toward the seated figure's feet, which rest on a tiger-print cloth. A gold-trimmed red velvet curtain forms the backdrop, and a wristwatch is visible on the arm of a third person at the left edge. The seated figure has distinctive long hair, saffron robes and a rudraksha mala, which supports a probable identification as a person, though the appearance is not fully certain.2013-05-14
