On the left, a man with short hair and a moustache, wearing a white shirt and a rudraksha mala, raises his right hand to touch the forehead of the man on the right, who wears a saffron-orange shawl and has long, swept-back dark hair and a red mark on his forehead. The man on the left holds his left hand in a mudra gesture. Orange and white towels rest on a white surface beside them, and a white curved backdrop is visible at the right edge. The seated man on the right has distinctive long hair and saffron clothing, so the appearance cues are consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji (probable), seated in a receiving role while being blessed by the standing priest in white.Photograph of two men in close indoor view. A man in orange sleeveless top with long swept-back dark hair holds a folded white paper and looks down at it, with his head bowed.

The bearded man has closed eyes and is receiving the blessing. A golden ornate pillar or throne edge is visible at right against a dark blue backdrop, and a blurred figure in orange stands in the background. The orange-clad man matches the page's Swamiji cues (long hair, saffron garb, rudraksha mala), so he is described as Swamiji (probable) receiving the role of blessing giver, with the white-clad man a devotee receiving the blessing.2010-10-19September 17 20112011-09-17December 15 20092009-12-15
