Behind them a man in orange shawl and white clothes holds a small stick, and a person in white stands at the edge. A white and green flower arrangement and a yellow cloth are at right. Partial figures at the top edge are visible.2006-08-29August 29 20062006-08-29A photograph of an indoor gathering in which a long-haired figure in an orange robe presses both palms to the face of a seated man in a white kurta with a brown rudraksha mala. The robed figure has long black hair and a bare arm extended, and the seated man's eyes are closed as he receives the blessing. Behind them a man in an orange shawl over white clothing stands with a rudraksha mala, and further back several people in white clothes stand with hands folded in prayer. A pale carpeted hall and a table with small items are visible at right. The scene appears to be a blessing or darshan moment. Only the robed figure's appearance does not clearly establish identity, so the candidate is unsure.2006-08-29A photograph of a seated figure in an orange-saffron garment with long dark swept-back hair and a bare upper body, touching a small golden object to the forehead of a standing man with short greying hair, a white kurta and a long rudraksha mala. The man's eyes are closed and his hands are open at his sides. Women in white clothes with orange borders stand behind them in a dim room with a dark blue curtain and an ornate brass lamp stand at upper right.2006-12-10A photograph of a seated devotee in a white t-shirt and a rudraksha mala, eyes closed, palms pressed together before his chest. A man in an orange shawl with long, swept-back dark hair and a red mark on his forehead touches the devotee's brow with his right hand, while a third person in orange and white stands behind them. Behind them are a potted plant, a red cushion and a hall with carpet.

The young man wears a rudraksha mala around his neck and has his eyes closed. Behind them, another person in an orange and white garment stands with hands raised, and people in white clothes are visible at the top edge. The setting appears to be a hall with a lectern-like table at the upper right.2006-08-29A photograph of an indoor satsang setting. On the left, a long-haired figure in a rust-orange robe and a thick orange beaded necklace with gold ornaments places a palm on the forehead of a bald, smiling man in a white shirt with an orange lanyard and a rudraksha-style bead mala, whose own hands are raised palms-out in a receiving gesture. Behind them, a man in white kurta with an orange lanyard and a man in white stand watching, and to the right a man with a beard in white kurta is partly visible beside a white cooling unit and a potted plant. The figure with long hair and ornate orange-and-gold beadwork matches the presentation of the a person, so the person giving the blessing is labelled a person, while the recipient is a devotee receiving the touch of blessing.2013-03-17A seated man with grey hair and a moustache, wearing a white kurta, an orange shawl, and a long rudraksha mala with a pendant, has his eyes closed while a woman in an orange garment and a white flower garland touches his forehead with her right hand. His own hands are raised palms outward. Behind them, other people in orange and white clothing sit on a green mat in a dim hall, with equipment and cables visible at the back. The gesture appears to be a blessing or initiation moment.2006-06-04November 17 20092009-11-17 +1 copies
