A seated man with long dark hair in a bun wears an orange-saffron cloth and a rudraksha mala, and presses his hand to the forehead of a young man in a white shirt with an orange shawl who raises one palm in greeting. Gold lion-head carvings and a silver staff stand nearby, and a red-upholstered seat sits behind. Behind them, a few people in white and orange shawls sit or stand in a hall with a framed picture on the wall. The scene suggests a blessing or darshan. The seated man is a probable Swamiji by his long hair, saffron cloth and rudraksha mala, present in person.2014-05-12September 20 20152015-09-20Photograph of a long-haired figure in a saffron-and-gold garment placing a hand on the forehead of a man in white clothes and a red-and-black printed shawl, with a conference lanyard.
