November 06 20112011-11-06November 15 20112011-11-15A photograph inside a hall at a satsang. A man with long dark hair, a white forehead mark and an orange dhoti with gold border, wearing layered beaded necklaces, stands smiling and extends one hand over the head of a kneeling devotee in a pink striped shirt with palms pressed together. The kneeling man wears an orange-beaded mala. Other devotees in orange and white stand behind, and a bald man in orange cloth is at the right edge. Red cloth and offerings are on a table in the lower right, with warm ceiling lights and a white screen behind.2012-07-20November 15 20112011-11-15Probable Swamiji, a smiling man with long swept-back dark hair, wears an orange saffron robe, multiple rudraksha malas, a gold necklace and orange-red beaded armbands, and places his hand on the head of a man in a white shirt who bows with palms pressed together. A shaved-headed priest in orange with a gold chain and white tripundra marks on his forehead stands at right. Around them, several men in white shirts stand with hands folded in a hall with pink and purple banner backdrop and ceiling lights. The scene resembles a blessing or darshan moment during a satsang gathering.2011-11-02Photo of a blessing moment at an indoor satsang hall. A figure in an orange-saffron robe with a long rudraksha mala and a gold pendant necklace, a white tilak and red bindi on the forehead, and gold earrings extends a hand to bless a seated devotee who has his hands pressed together. Other devotees in white shirts and mundus, one with a rudraksha mala, watch nearby, and a shaved-head monk in orange is at the right edge. Behind them a gold-and-red altar area with draped red fabric is visible. The orange-robed figure's appearance matches the page's a person cues (ornate saffron clothing, mala, gold necklace), so this is a probable match and is labelled accordingly.2012-10-14A photograph of a devotional blessing at an indoor event. A man in a saffron-orange robe with a long rudraksha mala and a gold-toned necklace stands center, smiling, with his palm raised above the head of a young man in a blue shirt who has his hands pressed together in namaskar. Beside him, a bare-headed priest in an orange-and-gold shawl with a red tilak and gold necklace stands near the line. An older man in white on the left also folds his hands in prayer. Several other people in white and light clothing stand in the background, with a yellow-and-blue banner visible at the top. The central figure has long swept-back hair and distinctive saffron robes and mala, consistent with Swamiji (probable) performing a blessing as a sannyasi.2011-02-28 +1 copiesJune 23 20122012-06-23 +1 copiesA photograph of a smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair, a red dot on his forehead, a red-orange robe and multiple beaded gold-toned necklaces, who places his right hand on the head of a kneeling man in a grey shirt. Several other devotees in white and orange clothing stand with hands folded in prayer behind him, and a figure in orange is visible at the right edge. The setting appears to be an indoor hall with a red curtain. The robed figure's long hair, red robe, beaded necklaces and blessing gesture match a probable Swamiji, so the figure is described as Swamiji (probable) giving a blessing to a devotee.2012-04-05A photograph of a devotee event in a decorated hall with draped white fabric and colourful striped pillars. In the foreground, a man in a red-orange saffron robe with ornate gold necklaces and rudraksha bracelets smiles while placing his right hand on the head of a young man in a white shirt who bows with palms pressed together in namaste. Beside them, a man in white shirt and a man in a blue-green polo stand with hands folded in prayer. Behind them, more devotees, several in white clothing, stand along a metal barrier. A person in saffron-orange robe with a tilaka-marked forehead and ornate necklace appears to be the central figure, with long swept-back hair and a crown-like headpiece, a person by visible adornments and robe, though the image does not confirm identity. A screen with a portrait is visible at the top.2013-02-03April 14 20122012-04-14May 19 20132013-05-19
