October 20 20112011-10-20A photograph of a seated man in an orange turban, orange shawl and red and yellow marigold garland placing his right hand on the head of a man in a white shirt, who faces away from the camera. The seated man wears a red tilak mark and a gold ornament on his turban, and his long dark hair falls past his shoulders. Another hand rests on the white-shirted man's shoulder. Red and pink string lights and a floral arrangement frame the scene. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure in orange turban, orange shawl, rudraksha-style red beaded garland and long swept-back hair, giving a blessing.2012-03-30A seated figure in an orange saffron robe with gold trim and a matching orange turban places his right palm on the forehead of a older man in a white shirt, who has his eyes closed and hands pressed together in prayer. The robed figure wears a red and yellow flower garland and has long dark hair and a crown-like ornament, with bare shoulder visible. Behind them, seated devotees in white and pale clothing and a red carpet fill a bright indoor hall with a window and lamp.2012-03-30March 30 20122012-03-30April 01 20122012-04-01March 30 20122012-03-30A photo of a blessing moment at an indoor event. A seated figure in an orange turban, orange shawl with gold borders and a red-and-yellow flower garland stretches an arm forward and places a hand on the head of a kneeling man in a white shirt, who has his palm raised. A man in white and a second man in white with a rudraksha mala appear behind. Orange and pink lights and white flowers decorate the background. The seated figure has long swept-back hair and bare-chested ornate orange dress with a gold-trimmed shawl, consistent with the Swamiji (probable) cues and a blessing role, so the appearance is a plausible in-person match.2012-03-30December 18 20112011-12-18Photograph of a seated man in an orange turban and orange-and-gold robe, with a red and white flower garland and a gold-coloured necklace, being touched on the forehead by a kneeling man in a white shirt whose palms are pressed together in namaskar. The seated figure's hair is long and swept back, and he sits on a cream upholstered chair draped with a tiger-stripe cloth. Behind them are string lights of red and pink bokeh, orange drapes and floral arrangements. A red tray with offerings sits at lower left. Two physical people are visible. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears a saffron turban, saffron robe with gold border, ceremonial garland and long swept-back hair, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, presented as a padapuja-style blessing; the kneeling devotee is a person in white.2012-03-30September 17 20112011-09-17July 11 20102010-07-11A photograph of a darshan-style interaction indoors. A person in an orange turban and orange robe, with a long orange shawl, gold-bead bracelets and a beaded necklace, places a hand on the head of a man in a white shirt with black-framed glasses, who has his hands folded in namaste. Other devotees in white and light clothing stand close behind, some with hands folded, and a man in an orange top is at the right edge. The orange-clad figure has long hair in a bun and appears to be a person by appearance, with a turban, saffron robe and gold-bead ornaments.2011-12-10
