Outdoor riverside ritual on a striped mat beside a hillside. A long-haired man in saffron-orange robes and a gold necklace sits on a raised seat, while a man in white kneeling beside him applies a mark to his forehead. A man in a white shirt with an orange shawl and rudraksha mala stands in front, and a cameraman in an orange-and-navy shirt films with a handheld camera on a tripod. Standing devotees in white dhotis and rudraksha malas watch, and a woman in a red-orange shawl sits at right. A saffron-and-green canopy with tassels is at top right. A video light on a stand is visible at center.

A bare-chested figure in saffron-orange cloth with long dark swept-back hair and a gold-toned necklace sits on a leopard-print cushion, placing a hand on the forehead of a kneeling man in white clothes and a saffron shawl.

A kneeling man in a white checked shirt and white dhoti, with a rudraksha mala, has his forehead touched by a long-haired figure in orange robes with a rudraksha mala, seated on a white cloth beside a small red-bordered rug and a white towel with flower petals. Around them, men in white shirts and white dhotis, several wearing rudraksha malas, stand and watch, one with hands raised in prayer. A man in an orange cloth stands at the right edge, and an older man in white with an orange-and-white cord stands at the left. Garlands hang in the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated orange-robed figure has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, consistent with the page, so this is an appearance-based candidate.2006-07-12July 12 20062006-07-12
