August 22 20122012-08-22 +1 copiesJuly 19 20152015-07-19A photograph of a seated man in a rust-red and gold-bordered saffron-toned cloth with a long rudraksha-style bead necklace and a red tilak on his forehead, placing his right hand on the forehead of a standing man in a white shirt with a red-and-orange shawl. The seated man has long swept-back hair and a red wrist thread. Behind them is a golden deity figure, a peacock feather fan and red floral decor. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, ornate red-gold clothing and rudraksha beads, consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable in-person candidate performing a blessing on a devotee. Blurred hall background with red drapes.2014-03-21Indoor blessing scene. A bare-chested man with long dark hair tied back in a bun, wearing a saffron-orange wrap with gold border, a red-and-white beaded necklace and a red thread on his wrist, presses his hand to the forehead of a young man in a white kurta with an orange-red shawl, whose eyes are closed. Behind them, seated devotees in white with orange-red shawls and rudraksha malas, and gold-framed backdrops, suggest a satsang or blessing session. Probable Swamiji (probable) is shown in this appearance-based label: long swept-back hair, ornate beaded necklace and saffron wrap; he is performing a forehead blessing.2014-03-21A photograph of a devotee receiving a blessing at a seated programme on a stage.
