A seated man in an orange turban and orange sleeveless garment with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala laughs warmly on a cream upholstered throne with ornate black carved wooden arms. His eyes are closed and he has a red bindi. He holds the bare shoulder of a second man seen from behind, wearing a dark grey-green collared shirt, in an intimate exchange during a satsang setting. Behind them is a pale beige fabric wall with hanging beaded strands.2010-07-11A smiling man in an orange turban and orange robe sits on an ornate black-and-cream carved throne, his eyes closed in a warm expression. A dark red bindi marks his forehead, and a long rudraksha mala hangs over his chest. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders. In the foreground, the back of a man in a grey-green shirt leans toward him, with a hand resting on his shoulder. A tiered wall hanging with small white ornaments forms the background. Swamiji (probable) is shown seated on the throne in orange turban and robes with rudraksha mala, receiving a devotee. The devotee's back is turned to the camera.2010-07-11July 11 20102010-07-11July 11 20102010-07-11July 11 20102010-07-11A seated man in orange robes and an orange turban, wearing a red and white flower garland and a gold-trimmed orange shawl, sits on a cream and gold throne with a leopard-print cushion and smiles while placing his raised palm on the forehead of a man in a brown button-up shirt who kneels before him with his hands raised. Behind them hang strings of red, yellow and orange lights against orange drapery, and a woman in a yellow sari with a beaded necklace is partly visible at the right edge. A silver ritual object sits on the left. The seated figure matches an appearance-based Swamiji (probable) candidate given long swept-back hair, orange turban, orange robes and a flower garland, and he is performing a blessing on a devotee during a pratyaksha padapuja style darshan.2012-03-30July 11 20102010-07-11A smiling man in a saffron-orange turban and orange robe, wearing a long rudraksha mala and a red tilak on his forehead, places his right palm on the head of a bowing man in a white-and-beige striped shirt. The setting is an indoor hall with a white draped backdrop and a pink wall, with a red-and-gold framed panel and a garland of red flowers and green leaves at the right edge. A third smiling man is partly visible at the far right. The scene reads as blessing given during a satsang or darshan.2008-07-29July 11 20102010-07-11Photograph of a smiling person in an orange saffron turban and orange wrap seated on a white-draped chair in front of a white backdrop.

Beside him, a man in a white shirt with a beaded necklace leans in with a hand raised near his ear, both laughing. The setting appears to be a stage or satsang hall.2008-07-29A seated man in a saffron-orange turban and matching orange shawl smiles warmly and looks down toward a person in the foreground. A dark red bindi marks his forehead, and a long rudraksha mala with large brown beads hangs across his chest. Long dark hair falls over his shoulder against a black carved chair. In the foreground, the back of a person's head and a teal-blue shirt are visible. The man matches the page's Swamiji cues: long hair, orange turban, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, so this is a probable Swamiji in person.2010-07-11
