In front, a tray holds oranges, bangles and folded cash. Behind, a gold deity murti stands in an ornate shrine area and a standing man in white and rudraksha beads is visible.

Standing behind them, a shaven-headed man with vibhuti on his forehead, glasses, an orange robe and rudraksha mala watches. In the background stand a brass oil lamp and a man in white dhoti with a gold-bordered shawl. The seated figure's appearance (turban, ornate jewellery and ornate throne setting) is consistent with the a person candidate, presented as the giver of blessing prasad.2015-10-13October 9th 2015May 14 20152015-05-14A photograph of a seated figure in a red-orange turban, orange-brown robe and a garland of white and orange flowers, receiving an offering from a man in a white kurta with a rudraksha mala and a red-brown bead necklace. The seated figure wears gold bangles and red-orange wrist bands and gestures with an outstretched hand toward a small orange cup or vessel held by the man. Behind them a bald attendant in orange-brown dhoti and cloth with rudraksha beads and a yellow forehead band sits near a standing woman in a white top and orange-brown shawl holding a small object. Gold ornate decorations are visible in the background. The setting appears to be a temple or ashram hall with red curtains.2015-05-14A seated figure on a golden throne wears a red-orange turban, ornate beaded necklaces, and a saffron-and-gold wrap, extending bare hands forward to receive offerings. Before them a man in a grey-blue collared shirt kneels and holds out fruit in cupped palms. Behind, a shaved-headed attendant in a red-orange robe with a vertical tilak and rudraksha mala sits beside a gold-framed throne, with standing attendants in red and gold clothing and a brass lamp beside them. This is a devotional darshan with fruit offering. The seated figure matches the appearance cues of Swamiji (probable): red turban, ornate gold and beaded adornment, saffron wrap, being honoured on a throne.2015-10-13October 09 20152015-10-09
