June 24 20122012-06-24 +1 copiesA photograph of a smiling man with long, wavy dark hair and a small red bindi, standing on a stage with both arms raised high in an open-handed greeting. He wears a sleeveless orange saffron garment draped over the shoulders and a long dark rudraksha mala. Behind him, two more men in orange saffron robes stand; the one on the right holds a golden trident-shaped staff. Audience members' heads are visible at the bottom edge, and a monitor is on the left. A large light-coloured backdrop with gold decorative trim fills the background.2010-02-14October 16 20112011-10-16A photograph of a man in an orange saffron robe with a dark rudraksha mala around his neck, standing on a stage with both arms raised high and a broad smile. Long dark curly hair falls past his shoulders and he has a small red bindi on his forehead. Behind him, another person in orange robes stands partly visible, and a third figure in orange holds a golden ceremonial staff topped with a gold ornament. A black music stand or podium stands at left, and a white wall with a blue-and-white banner panel sits at the top right. Audience heads are visible at the bottom edge.2010-02-14June 22 20122012-06-22October 23 20102010-10-23December 25 20112011-12-25A smiling man sits on an orange cushion with both arms raised, palms open and facing forward, in a blessing gesture. He wears a red-maroon cloth draped over his bare shoulder with a gold-edged border, a heavy necklace of large gold beads, and a red bindi on his forehead, with a red thread on his wrist. The plain pale peach wall behind him is unadorned. Given the swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace, and maroon-saffron robe, this is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in blessing.2014-02-02June 23 20122012-06-23July 10 20122012-07-10September 28 20142014-09-28A photograph of a bare-chested man with long dark swept-back hair and a red bindi, standing on a raised stage with both arms raised high and a broad smile. He wears layered rudraksha mala garlands across his chest and multiple rudraksha bracelets on both wrists, with an orange-red shawl draped over his shoulders. Behind him are dark wooden wall panels, a ceiling with recessed lighting, and cream draped curtains, with a silver ceremonial object at the lower right edge. The image carries a copyright overlay in the lower right corner and a small logo in the upper left corner. Appearance-based cues including swept hair, rudraksha malas and an orange shawl suggest a person performing an arms-raised gesture during a darshan.2015-12-07
