A seated bare-chested figure with long swept-back black hair, wearing an orange-brown shawl and a thick garland of red and pink beads with a gold ceremonial necklace, sits on a brown velvet throne decorated with red flowers. He extends his right hand toward a young boy in a white t-shirt who stands with a hand near his chest, while a girl in white and orange clothing leans in and a woman in a white and gold-bordered sari holds flowers and a small tray. A gold deity murti sits near the throne, and a colourful painted backdrop and leopard-print cushion frame the scene. Probable Swamiji (long swept-back hair, orange shawl, bead garland, gold necklace) is seated on the throne, giving blessings to the children.2012-12-26July 19 20132013-07-19A photograph of a shaved-headed?-no: a man in a saffron-orange and gold-edged dhoti-shawl wrap, wearing a multi-strand rudraksha mala, extends his right arm to place his palm on the forehead of a young curly-haired boy in a white t-shirt with an orange-red shawl and orange lanyard. The boy's hands are raised at his head in receptive posture. Behind them, a woman with a vermilion bindi and beaded mala sits, and several people in white and orange-red robes stand at a red-carpeted ceremonial area with a gold-carved throne-like chair and green plants.2015-07-19A seated man with bare upper body, wearing a thick white and orange flower garland and red-and-orange flower strands, extends his hand toward devotees in a darshan-style gathering. Several people are around him: a woman in a dark blue sari holds up a folded white paper, a woman in a white sari and saffron shawl presses palms together, a woman in a pink top with a red-and-white shawl bends forward, and a young man in a white shirt reaches out with cupped hands. Red curtains, a carved stone pillar and a standing fan are in the background. The seated figure is shown with distinctive adornments and a garland, and is a person in a ceremonial role receiving devotees.2016-10-30 +1 copiesDecember 26 20122012-12-26July 19 20152015-07-19A bare-chested man in saffron-orange cloth with a pink and white flower garland and gold ceremonial necklace sits on a red and zebra-patterned seat, smiling as he reaches out to bless a curly-haired child in white. A tall silver trident-shaped staff stands beside him, with bamboo screens and gold drapes behind. Another person in white and a brown mala kneels at a ritual tray in the background, and a boy in a striped shirt stands on the red carpet.2014-07-16April 02 20172017-04-02A photograph of a blessing moment during a satsang. A man in saffron-orange robes with a gold-yellow border and a beaded rudraksha-style necklace extends his right hand to rest on the head of a young boy in a white shirt with an orange-and-red shawl, a red beaded bracelet on his wrist. Behind them a woman in white with an orange shawl and a dark rudraksha mala smiles, and other children in orange shawls wait. Brass lamps and a red draped cloth stand in the background, with a pedestal fan at right. Probable Swamiji appearance cues: the man has a swept-back hair bun, saffron robes and rudraksha beads, and the page identifies him as Swamiji.2015-07-19May 28 20132013-05-28July 14 20132013-07-14December 26 20152015-12-26
