January 18 20092009-01-18July 07 20092009-07-07Indoor photograph of a long-haired man in a cream dhoti and cream top with a gold-bordered shawl, pressing his right palm to the forehead of a seated man in a white shirt with a red coral bead mala and closed eyes. Another hand rests on the head of a person at the lower left. Behind them, figures in white shirts and an orange cloth stand in a crowded room. The long-haired man has distinctive long, swept-back hair and gold-bordered cream attire consistent with the page's reference to a person, but the appearance is only partly clear, so identity is uncertain.2006-07-30A photograph of a healing darshan in an indoor hall with a red curtain backdrop. On the right, a long-haired figure in orange robes and a rudraksha mala extends a hand toward the head of a young man in a light blue shirt who bows forward; a Swamiji (probable) candidate, shown in person, with long swept-back hair and orange clothing with rudraksha beads. Behind him stand a shaven-headed young man in orange shawl with red markings and a young man in red shirt with glasses. To the left, a man in white kurta with orange shawl and rudraksha mala and an older man in white assist, touching the young man's shoulder. A young woman in white with a yellow flower in her hair kneels at lower centre, a small child in red stands at far left, and a folding fan and sound speaker are visible. Literature is spread on a table at lower right.2008-03-23July 17 20082008-07-17March 23 20082008-03-23August 23 20112011-08-23A photograph of a darshan line under a tent-canopy of a temple hall. A smiling man in long swept-back dark hair, a red-orange robe with a sleeveless orange garment, and a long rudraksha mala stands centre-frame, offering a blessing with his raised hand to a devotee who bows with folded hands. Devotees in white shirts and dhotis stand behind a metal railing on the left, while a man in white kurta holds a small wooden box. Hanging colourful cloth banners and a floral decorated altar appear in the background. Appearance-based probable identification as a person is not sufficiently supported by unambiguous cues here, so the a person value is unsure.2010-09-21July 30 20062006-07-30April 27 20142014-04-27July 30 20062006-07-30A photograph of an indoor convention setting. In the foreground a man with long, swept-back dark hair, bare-chested apart from a white and gold-bordered shawl, wears a rudraksha mala of large brown beads and places his right palm on the forehead of a seated devotee. The seated man wears a white shirt, brown rudraksha beads and a vibhuti mark, and sits with palms pressed together in namaskar with eyes closed. Behind them, several men in white clothes stand, one wearing an orange scarf and another a white badge. The long hair, distinctive rudraksha mala and shawl are cues for the central figure, but the photo is ambiguous about identity, so the appearance is marked uncertain. Blessing or aashirvad with vibhuti on the forehead is visible.2006-07-30
