September 09 20112011-09-09A photograph of a long-haired man in saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala seated on an ornate gilded throne with peacock-carved armrests before deep red velvet drapery. He smiles broadly while clasping the hands of an older man with short white hair, white kurta and a rudraksha mala, who bows forward and receives him. In the background a younger man in white and saffron sits to the left, and a small tray with sweets rests near the bottom of the frame. The seated man's distinctive long hair, saffron clothing, mala and gold throne match the Swamiji cues, so he is presented as a probable Swamiji in an act of blessing.2006-10-21 +1 copiesIndoor photo of a seated saint on a red-upholstered throne with a gilded golden backdrop.
