He smiles while placing his right hand on the head of a person in a white shirt and orange shawl seen from behind, in a blessing gesture. Another hand is partly visible in the foreground.

The man in orange has a red tilak and white ash marks on his forehead. Behind them a large silver lion sculpture and silver-embossed panels stand against a dark background. Two hands folded in prayer appear at the lower edge. Swamiji (probable): the long-haired man in orange wrap with rudraksha mala and gold pendant is giving blessing darshan to a devotee.2017-12-16May 21 20182018-05-21A seated man with long dreadlocks, a white tilak on his forehead, a beard, a bare chest, and a deep red-brown cloth draped over his shoulders and a rudraksha mala around his neck sits on a leopard-print seat beside an ornate silver pillar. He rests his right hand on the head of a bald, kneeling devotee in a white shirt, while a woman in red with a rudraksha necklace stands behind and another person's hands hold a folded white paper. A gong is visible in the background, and red-curtained stage draping frames the scene. The seated man's clothing and dreadlocks are an appearance-based match for a person blessing a devotee in darshan.2018-05-21A bearded man with long dreadlocked hair, a red-and-white tilak on his forehead, a red-brown cloth draped over his shoulders and rudraksha beads around his neck, smiles with eyes closed as he places his right hand on the crown of a shorter man's head in blessing. The recipient, seen from behind, wears a white collared shirt and a red thread bracelet is visible on the blessing hand's wrist. A silver-toned ornate backdrop and a silver-coloured deity murti stand behind them against a dark background. Appearance is consistent with a person, identified by long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and a reddish cloth, while the blessing is a darshan gesture.2017-12-16A man with long swept-back dark hair, a beard, a red tilak on his forehead and white paint marks, wearing a rust-red shawl, multiple rudraksha mala necklaces and a gold pendant, stands on a stage placing his hand on the head of a seated man in a white shirt. Behind them is an ornate silver-embossed canopy and a silver throne-like seat with a leopard-print fabric. The setting suggests a blessing darshan on stage. The man in white is receiving a blessing from the figure with rudraksha malas and long hair.2017-12-16
