A photograph of a seated figure in an orange-saffron robe on an ornate gold-carved throne, with a man in a white shirt bending forward and pressing his hands to the seated figure's head in a blessing gesture. A young girl in yellow stands at the left edge and a woman in white with orange trim stands at the right. Behind them is a banner with orange-and-rudraksha artwork and Kannada script. The seated figure has long dark hair and wears the orange robe with bare arms, making the identity uncertain from appearance alone.

A photograph of a seated figure in an orange-red robe receiving a blessing on the head. A man in a white shirt leans forward from the left, his hands pressed to the seated figure's head in a gesture of blessing. The seated figure wears a rudraksha-free orange garment and sits before an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork against a painted backdrop of trees. At right, an older woman in a patterned sari with a gold necklace watches with hands folded near the chest. Appearance is insufficient to establish the seated figure's identity, so the role is described as a devotee receiving blessing.2010-01-31A seated man in an orange shawl over a red garment sits before an ornate gold throne with garlands of green leaves and yellow and purple flowers. An older man in a white shirt bends forward and presses his hand to the seated man's forehead in a blessing. A red-and-brown patterned cloth covers the throne's base, and a red backdrop with a faded printed image stands behind them.2009-08-20A photograph of a devotee in a white kurta and white dhoti with his arm extended, hand resting on the head of a seated figure wearing an orange saffron cloth draped over bare shoulders and arms, seated before an ornate gold-carved throne with red velvet cushions. Behind them a large banner with partly visible white block lettering on teal and beige artwork. Another person's raised palm is visible at the right edge, and the back of a head is in the lower foreground. The seated figure's face is partly turned away and not clearly visible, so the identity is uncertain.2011-12-09July 23 20092009-07-23A photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a dark rudraksha mala with long swept-back dark hair placing a hand on the head of a man in a white striped shirt and brown trousers who bends forward with palms pressed together. The seated figure sits on a red cushioned seat before an ornate gold throne-back. A partially visible person in white stands at left, and another figure in white is behind them. A small gold-toned cabinet and a red cloth draped over the armrest appear in the foreground. Probable Swamiji is shown in appearance-based terms only by his saffron robe, long hair and rudraksha mala, seated in a blessing gesture of darshan.2010-10-23December 13 20092009-12-13December 02 20102010-12-02December 03 20092009-12-03A photograph of a long-haired figure in an orange-saffron garment with a red bindi, seated on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, placing both hands on the crown of the head of a bald, grey-haired man in a white shirt with a dark cord around his neck, whose arms are raised with palms open. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair and saffron clothing, consistent with the page's account of the teacher giving blessing during the satsang. Background is a dark blue draped curtain. Only two physical people are visible.2010-12-02August 11 20092009-08-11September 18 20112011-09-18A seated man in an orange-saffron robe with a red dot on his forehead sits on a gold-carved throne-like chair with red cushions, placing his right hand on the shoulder of an older man in white shirt and white dhoti who stands with his back to the camera.
