A man with long swept-back dark hair, bare-chested with a red-and-gold wrap, a beaded orange-and-gold necklace and a purple beaded bracelet, places his right hand on the forehead of a smiling young woman in a red and gold sari with a dark rudraksha-style mala. Behind them a seated audience in red and orange robes and white garments watches; a wooden box with money notes sits near the hands. An overhead screen shows part of the stage. Appearance cues are suggestive but the page says Swamiji is not at this event, so the identity is uncertain.2015-07-10
