A seated man in an orange-saffron robe with a thick rudraksha mala and a long dark hair knot, bearing white sacred ash on his forehead, extends his right hand in blessing toward the head of a young boy in a white shirt and red-and-white checked cloth with an orange thread. The boy stands with eyes closed and hands folded. Behind them a second man in white with a yellow-bordered cloth and white forehead marks sits, and blurred figures stand in the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated blessing figure shows long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala, the cues the page associates with Swamiji, though this is an appearance-based label.2013-02-25June 20 20132013-06-20 +1 copiesOctober 27 20102010-10-27 +1 copiesFebruary 27 20132013-02-27June 20 20132013-06-20March 24 20082008-03-24October 11 20122012-10-11December 31 20132013-12-31 +1 copiesMarch 01 20132013-03-01A photograph inside an ornate temple hall with arched windows and carved pillars. A bare-chested man in saffron-orange cloth with long swept-back hair, a red-and-gold headband, multiple gold beaded necklaces and rudraksha malas raises his right palm in blessing over the head of a young man in a light grey shirt. Several devotees stand with hands folded around them. On the right, a shaved-headed priest in saffron robes and a rudraksha mala looks down while holding a silver tray of gold ornaments. Flowers rest on the lower left, and a blue-and-white deity mural is visible in the background.2012-05-11A photograph of a seated woman in a rust-orange sari with a gold border and a long beaded rudraksha-style necklace placing her right hand on the head of a man bowing forward with hands clasped in prayer. The man wears a pink striped shirt and cream dhoti. Behind them, standing figures in white kurtas and orange-red robes watch, and red fruits sit on a tray at the bottom edge.2013-12-30A photograph of a devotee with hands pressed together in namaskar, head bowed, receiving a blessing as a man in an orange robe with a rudraksha mala and a large ornate pendant places his hand on the devotee's head. The blessing man has long swept-back hair, a white tilak on his forehead and a red dot, ornate gold-trimmed orange clothing and multiple rudraksha bead bracelets and necklaces, and he is speaking. Behind him, another orange-robed man with a gold necklace and white tilak stands beside a red box of offerings. A man in a light blue striped shirt and a man in white kurta stand nearby, along with a bald orange-robed figure at right. A projection screen and a crowd are in the background. Swamiji (probable) is described by the long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and orange ornate robes, shown in person giving a blessing.2012-10-09
