A photograph of a seated man in a magenta-pink wrap with a rudraksha mala draped over his shoulder, his hair tied back in a bun, extending his right hand to press onto the forehead of a younger man in a white shirt with a dark rudraksha-style cord at his neck. The man in white has his palms pressed together in greeting and bends his head forward. Behind them a red curtain and a light peach wall are visible, with a metal vessel on a cloth at lower centre. Both men are in the foreground; the bottom-right corner carries a faint copyright overlay. The gesture resembles a blessing being given to a devotee; a person candidate is present with distinctive rudraksha mala, magenta wrap and bun, though identity is uncertain from appearance alone.2011-11-27Photograph of two men in close indoor contact. A man with hair tied back in a bun, wearing a red-maroon cloth with gold border and a long rudraksha mala, smiles while placing his right hand on the forehead of a shaved-headed man in a white t-shirt with a rudraksha mala, whose hands are pressed together in anjali and eyes are closed. Plain peach wall background and a dark curtain at left. Appearance cues on the man in red-maroon with rudraksha mala are present, though not conclusive, so identity is uncertain and the role is described as a teacher giving blessing.2011-07-18December 07 20132013-12-07February 09 20122012-02-09July 18 20112011-07-18A photograph of a man in a red and gold-striped dhoti-style wrap with a bare chest and a long gold bead necklace, applying a touch to the forehead of a second man in a pink kurta with a rudraksha mala. The robed man has swept-back hair, white vibhuti lines and a red tilak, and his palm rests on the other man's forehead in a blessing gesture. Behind them a large printed banner shows smiling faces, and a wooden carved panel stands at right. Swamiji (probable): the robed man wears the ornate red and gold clothing, long swept-back hair and gold bead necklace, while the pink-clad man is a devotee receiving the blessing.2011-11-06A seated robed figure in orange-brown drapery, with white tilak on the forehead, a rudraksha mala with gold beads at the neck, and hair tied in a bun, extends his right hand to press it onto the forehead of a standing man in a white shirt with a red scarf. The man has his palms pressed together in front of him in receiving posture. A red-cushioned seat and a small red deity figure with a red crown stand in the background. Two people are visible.2012-10-13September 04 20112011-09-04 +1 copiesMarch 03 20152015-03-03October 19 20122012-10-19March 07 20132013-03-07December 10 20132013-12-10
