April 01 20182018-04-01August 23 20172017-08-23Close side-profile photo of a short-haired, greying man with eyes closed, receiving a blessing as another person's hand rests on his forehead, with the palm of his other hand raised in front of his chest. He wears a white garment edged with yellow and a brown rudraksha mala around his neck; the background is a blurred warm-toned crowd. Appearance alone does not establish identity and no name is printed on the person, so a person is unsure.2017-09-21 +1 copiesNovember 14 20102010-11-14A photograph of a bald, grey-bearded man in white clothing and a rudraksha mala seated with his head bowed, while a woman in white stands behind him with both palms pressed to the crown of his head in a blessing gesture. Behind them stand ornate gold lamps and stands, a deity murti decorated with white garlands and sparkling ornaments, and draped fabrics in pink and green. The bowed man's identity is not established by any visible cue beyond ordinary white ritual clothing and a rudraksha mala, so no a person candidate is asserted; he is described by role as a seated devotee receiving a blessing. The woman is in white with a purple hair ornament. Two physical people are visible.2010-11-14April 20 20182018-04-20July 17 20152015-07-17A bare-chested older man with a white blindfold tied over his eyes and white paste marks on his forehead and shoulders stands with his hands folded at his chest in a ritual initiation. A young priest in white dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala and a red and gold bracelet presses his palm to the man's forehead. Beside them, a man in a white garment and rudraksha mala steadies the initiate's shoulder, and at the right edge a figure in an orange-red turban and gold ornaments is partly visible. Other people in white and saffron stand behind in a crowded hall. A gold pillar is at the top right.2017-02-22April 24 20182018-04-24 +1 copiesA photo of a seated older man with short grey hair and a grey stubble beard, hands pressed together in namaste, wearing a cream dhoti and a long strand of wooden and amber beaded rudraksha-style mala around his neck. A younger man in an orange-saffron robe reaches over from the right and rests his palm on the older man's forehead in a blessing, with a red thread bracelet on his wrist. Blurred orange-robed figures and a maroon curtain stand in the background.2017-07-14February 02 20132013-02-02 +1 copiesMarch 25 20182018-03-25
