July 13 20132013-07-13December 16 20132013-12-16A seated man with long dark hair pulled back, wearing a rust-orange draped garment, red-and-white cloth beneath him, and beaded rudraksha-style malas on his wrist and neck, extends his hand to touch the forehead of a curly-haired young child in a white kurta. Behind them a second man in white with a white forehead mark and beaded necklace looks on, and a yellow sheet and flower lie on the floor. Adults and a dark-haired woman are at the edge of the frame in a bright hall with red drapes. The seated man is consistent with the a person appearance cues of long hair and saffron-toned clothing with rudraksha malas, though the image is not conclusive; he is blessing the child in what appears to be a darshan-style moment.2013-07-16A photograph of a seated man with long dark hair swept back, wearing an orange-saffron cloth draped over his shoulder and a long red and gold flower garland with a gold chain, a gold bracelet on his wrist. He is smiling and reaching to touch the forehead of a young boy in a white kurta with a rudraksha-style mala, who has his palms pressed together in respectful greeting. A small red-and-gold cloth lies on the low red seat beside him, and an orange towel is on the arm of the seat. Behind them, women in white and a woman in a green sari sit or stand in the hall, with a white wall and a wall-mounted air conditioner in the background. The man has distinctive long hair, saffron clothing and a ceremonial garland, consistent with the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues while he gives a blessing.2013-05-28A long-haired man in a rust-red garment with a leopard-print wrap and a thick rudraksha mala seated on an ornate gilded throne, touching the forehead of a young boy in an orange saffron robe with a rudraksha mala and beaded bracelets. The boy has a white tilak on his forehead. Lush green plants, flowers and a golden ceremonial backdrop surround the scene; a woman in a white top and red shawl smiles at right. Appearance-based label: a person, seated and blessing the boy; the other people are a boy receiving blessing and a woman devotee.2014-12-26A photograph of a seated figure with long dark hair and a ponytail, wearing an orange-saffron shawl and a beaded orange-brown necklace, smiling as he places his right hand on the head of a young boy in a black shirt who has his palms pressed together. Behind them, a man in a white dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala and a bead pendant watches, and other people in white and orange-pink clothing stand in the background. A small offering tray with fruit and foil-wrapped sweets rests near the seated figure. The setting is an indoor hall with a pale wall.2013-07-01September 20 20152015-09-20May 03 20142014-05-03July 09 20132013-07-09A seated man in a maroon-red robe with a gold ceremonial necklace and a gold hair ornament reaches out to bless a curly-haired child in a white shirt, who raises both hands overhead. Behind them a woman in white wears a rudraksha mala and holds a small offering. Devotees in red and white robes stand in the background of a bright hall with white floors and warm lamps.2013-12-20December 24 20142014-12-24May 28 20132013-05-28
