A photograph taken indoors in a dark hall. A bare-shouldered figure in a red-orange sleeveless top and orange shawl with a rudraksha mala stands at right, placing a hand on the head of a bowing man in a white checked shirt and grey trousers. Around them, a man in an orange shawl and mala, a woman in white with a gold border, a girl in white with a mala, and other devotees in white stand watching. Garlands of flowers are visible at the right edge. The figure giving the blessing shows cues that could match the a person, with long swept-back hair, an orange shawl and rudraksha beads, so the appearance is a probable match, though the role here is a blessing given to a devotee.2009-09-13November 17 20092009-11-17 +1 copiesSeptember 13 20092009-09-13 +1 copiesNovember 22 20092009-11-22A photograph taken indoors in a plain whitewashed room. A man in a sleeveless saffron-orange garment and orange shawl stands at left, his right hand raised and pressed to the forehead of a seated devotee in the centre, a woman in a blue patterned blouse. A man in a white kurta with folded hands leans in at right, facing the blessing. Behind them a crowd of devotees watches, including a woman in white with a yellow shawl and a woman in an orange top and white sari at far right. Appearance-based label: the saffron-clad man at left shows a shaved-free long swept hair and orange clothing, consistent with a person giving blessing; this is an appearance-based candidate only. Roughly seven people are visible.2009-12-12October 27 20102010-10-27A photograph of an indoor sarva darshan blessing inside a hall with white draped ceiling fabric and a yellow and blue patterned hanging. A young person in an orange sleeveless robe with long dark hair in a low bun places a hand on the forehead of an older man in a white checked short-sleeved shirt, who has a rudraksha-style red-brown mala around his neck and bows his head while another man holds his hand. Behind them a bald man in white with an orange stole watches, and an elderly woman with glasses and a yellow-sleeved person in white stand nearby. Fruit sits on a table at right and a red cloth is visible at the edge.2010-07-29August 09 20092009-08-09A photograph of an evening darshan in an ashram hall. A man with long, swept-back dark hair wears an orange sleeveless saffron garment and holds a golden kalasha-style vessel in his left hand while pressing his right palm to the forehead of an elderly man in a white collared shirt. The elderly man, with grey hair, has his hands folded at his chest. Behind them a woman in a dark patterned top and a woman in white stand watching, and ornamental fabric banners with yellow and blue patterns hang from the ceiling.2010-07-01August 27 20092009-08-27 +1 copiesJuly 25 20092009-07-25Photograph of a man with dark hair and a grey moustache in a white shirt and gold bracelet, eyes closed, being blessed with a hand placed on his forehead by a figure in a red sleeveless top and orange shawl with long dark hair tied back. Another man in white stands behind them, and a few people are partly visible at the edges. In the background a dim hall has white garments on a rack and a framed portrait, with a seated figure at lower left. The orange-shawled figure is a candidate for a person by appearance cues of long swept hair and orange clothing, but the face and build are not clear enough to confirm, so this is marked as probable and uncertain.2009-07-25
