The blessing figure has long dark hair swept back, wears a tilak, a small gold earring, layered rudraksha-style beads and a heavy ceremonial gold bead necklace with a crystal mala, and holds a sheet of paper in the other hand. Behind them a second robed figure in ochre stands near a maroon curtain and a yellow banner, with a few other people at the edge of the frame. The blessing figure has distinctive long swept-back hair, ochre robes and ornate gold necklaces, consistent with the Swamiji (probable) candidate; the kneeling man is a devotee receiving blessing.2013-05-04November 16 20112011-11-16Indoor satsang scene. On the right, a man with long swept-back dark hair, gold-hoop earring, layered rudraksha malas and a gold pendant, wearing an orange-saffron robe, smiles and raises one hand in blessing toward devotees. Several devotees in plain white clothing stand with palms pressed together in anjali mudra, including a shaved-headed young man wearing glasses and a bearded man in white. Background shows more seated and standing devotees, a red cloth, and a hanging orange fabric. Swamiji (probable) appears in person, identified by the long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and saffron robe while giving blessings to devotees.2013-01-02Indoor satsang setting with a man in a long-sleeved white kurta and dark-rimmed glasses standing with palms pressed together in anjali, a rudraksha mala around his neck.
