June 20 20082008-06-20A photograph of a man with long dark hair swept back in a bun, wearing an orange saffron shawl over his shoulder and a heavy gold necklace, reaching out to touch the head of a devotee in a white shirt seen from behind. Another person in white stands at the left edge, and a white draped structure and dark red curtain form the backdrop. The scene suggests a blessing or darshan moment at a convention.2008-06-20June 20 20082008-06-20November 25 20112011-11-25 +1 copiesJanuary 08 20122012-01-08A photograph of a seated man in an orange saffron shawl draped over one shoulder, with a long rudraksha mala around his neck and a red bindi on his forehead, leaning forward with his right arm extended to rest a hand on the upturned head of a man in a white shirt whose arms are raised overhead. The seated man has long swept-back hair and wears a distinctive saffron wrap and rudraksha beads, cues consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji (probable), who appears to be giving a blessing. Behind them is an ornate gold throne-like chair with red velvet cushions and a colourful blurred backdrop with a gold figurine.2011-11-25A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a long gold bead necklace with a gold pendant sits before a white canopy and dark backdrop. His hair is swept back, and his right hand rests on the head of a woman in the lower right, who sits with her hands pressed together in prayer, wearing a white outfit and gold bangles. A partially visible person with grey hair stands at the far left edge.

The guru holds a sheet of handwritten paper. Behind them, a second person in orange robes and a floral garland sits on a throne-like seat with gold ornamentation, and a bald person in orange is at the left edge.

A golden throne-like seat with ornate gilding stands to the left, and a carved stone panel is behind.

Two physical people are visible.2011-11-26November 05 20112011-11-05
