A photograph of an indoor blessing. A man in orange robes with an orange turban and a long rudraksha mala places both hands on the head of a seated man in a white and brown striped polo shirt, who holds his palms together in prayer. The orange-clad figure has a bandage on one wrist and a small red tilak on the forehead. A brass oil lamp stands at left beside a dark blue curtain, and a large portrait behind shows a smiling figure. A man in white clothing with a rudraksha mala sits at the far left edge. Swamiji (probable): the orange-robed figure in the turban and rudraksha mala is the most.

A man in an orange turban and orange robe with heavy gold necklaces and gold bangles stands at right, smiling and placing his raised hand on the head of a man in glasses and a white shirt. In the foreground a man in a white and navy polo kneels with palms pressed together and head bowed, while a woman with long dark hair and a man in grey stand nearby. A tray of offerings is visible at the lower edge.

The seated figure has long swept-back hair and bare-chested ornate orange dress with a gold-trimmed shawl, consistent with the Swamiji (probable) cues and a blessing role, so the appearance is a plausible in-person match.2012-03-30October 29 20112011-10-29 +1 copiesA man in an orange turban, orange shawl and orange dhoti with a rudraksha mala and gold necklace stands bare-chested at right, placing both hands on the head of a seated man in a blue-and-white striped shirt who bows with hands folded.
