The golden object appears to be an ornate gold vessel or offering. Behind them several people in white and orange-red shawls stand and watch in a room with green foliage and curtains.2012-12-28December 24 20122012-12-24A photograph of a seated figure with long, swept-back black hair wearing an orange-saffron robe and a long brown rudraksha mala, handing a small object to a bald, smiling man in white clothes with an orange shawl draped over his shoulders. Behind them, several people in white with orange shawls stand and sit in a room; a woman in a white sari with an orange shawl and a gold ornate object, possibly a kalasha or ceremonial vessel, sits near the seated figure. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, saffron robe, and rudraksha mala, the cues associated with the presiding teacher role in this satsang-style gathering.2012-12-28A seated figure with a swept-back dark hairstyle, bare-chested under a maroon-brown cloth, wears a red and white garland with rudraksha beads and a white tilak on the forehead, placing a hand on the head of a kneeling devotee. The devotee wears a white kurta and an orange shawl and presses palms together. Behind them are red velvet drapes, a floral garland of red and yellow flowers, and a gold kalasha-like vessel. A seated figure with long swept-back hair and rudraksha malas with a crown-like adornment gives blessing, consistent with a padapuja-style darshan. Swamiji (probable) is in the seated figure, who has long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and a garland, and the devotee is kneeling in front of the throne.2014-09-28July 27 20142014-07-27July 21 20132013-07-21April 05 20172017-04-05 +1 copiesA photograph of a seated devotee in an orange sannyasi-style garment with long dark wavy hair, holding a small white card, beside a gilded ornamental figure.

A man in a red-orange cloth and a gold bead necklace with a white and red forehead mark touches the forehead of a young man with curly hair and a blue headband. The young man wears a white sleeveless top and raises both palms, while the blesser extends his right arm and holds a folded white paper in his left hand. A large gold cobra-hooded object and a silver staff entwined with a snake stand beside them, with a peacock-feather fan visible at the left edge and another partially visible person at the right edge. The blesser has a rudraksha bracelet on his wrist. The page names a person as present, but the blesser's appearance is not sufficiently distinctive to confirm his identity, so the role is described as the blesser.2014-07-27
