A seated man in saffron-orange robes with long swept-back hair and a rudraksha mala sits on a white-draped throne, gently touching the head of a small child kneeling before him. Next to him, a shaved-headed monk in orange robes with a tilak holds up a printed receipt or card. A woman in a pink sari with a long plait and gold necklace bows with hands folded, and a man in a checked shirt stands in line. Behind them, attendants in white shirts and orange shawls stand near a table with flower offerings, fruit and a tray of kumkum-coloured prasad. Devotees fill the room, and a pedestal fan and red curtain are visible in the background. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure receiving devotees, identified by the long swept-back hair, saffron robes and rudraksha mala.

Behind him stand several men in white shirts and orange shawls, some with shaved heads and tilak marks, and a man in white kurta and glasses kneels nearby. A white cushioned seat, a floral-patterned banner and a flower in a vase are in the background, and a seated devotee is partly visible at the lower left. The seated saffron-robed figure has long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and a bindi, which are cues consistent with Swamiji (probable), presented as a blessing darshan with devotees. The woman is receiving a blessing with folded hands.2008-03-12March 12 20082008-03-12March 12 20082008-03-12March 12 20082008-03-12March 27 20082008-03-27March 12 20082008-03-12March 13 20082008-03-13March 23 20082008-03-23March 12 20082008-03-12
