Photograph taken at night on an outdoor stage under a decorated tent with colourful patterned hangings. A smiling man with long dark hair and a white turban, dressed in white robes with gold-coloured borders, extends his hand toward a kneeling devotee in a white shirt with rudraksha beads around his neck. Behind them, another man in a white shirt holds a beaded mala, and several other white-clad people are seated in the background. Swamiji (probable), appearance-based label: the seated central figure shows long swept-back hair, a white turban and gold-bordered white robes, with a rudraksha mala. He appears to be giving blessing to the kneeling devotee. Visible people number about six.

A man seated on the left wears a white turban and white dhoti with gold borders, a gold chain, and a red tilak on his forehead; he smiles while placing his right hand on the head of a kneeling man in a white shirt. Other men in white stand and sit behind, and an orange-robed man sits on the right. A camera on a tripod stands in the background, with a red carpet and scattered flower petals on the ground. The page describes a Salem conference, but the seated man's appearance is not clearly identifiable as a person, so the role is given as a seated figure blessing a devotee.2005-12-09December 09 20052005-12-09December 09 20052005-12-09A night-time stage event under a tent.
