A photograph of a long-haired man seated on a red cushioned throne with an ornate gold backrest, wearing a white dhoti-style cloth, a red bindi, white vibhuti marks and a heavy gold ceremonial necklace with a gold armband. He smiles as he rests his hand on the crown of an elderly bald man with white hair who wears a hearing aid and a white shirt with red trim, his palms pressed together in reverence. Behind them stand a brass oil lamp with a flame, pink, orange and yellow flowers and a gold figurine. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a ceremonial gold necklace and white ritual clothing on a throne, so this is a probable identification based on those cues. The elderly devotee receives blessing.

He places his right palm on the forehead of a younger man in a white shirt who leans in, eyes closed. Behind them stands a gilded carved throne back and a backdrop of orange, white and pink flowers. A seated figure with long hair and gold ornaments matches the Swamiji (probable) cues: long swept hair, ornate gold jewellery and a ceremonial white garment, while he performs a blessing on a devotee.2010-12-06December 06 20102010-12-06December 06 20102010-12-06December 06 20102010-12-06December 06 20102010-12-06December 06 20102010-12-06November 14 20102010-11-14
