A seated man in a red-orange turban with a gold paisley ornament, a saffron-and-gold shawl and a long gold-beaded necklace smiles while holding a sheet of white paper. A man in a white shirt with an orange scarf printed with Sanskrit text raises his palm in greeting and leans forward as the seated figure reaches to touch his head. Red upholstered chairs and a red banner reading Inner Awakening are behind them, with other seated attendees in the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's orange turban, gold-beaded necklace and saffron-gold robe fit the candidate profile, and he is presented as the giver of blessing.
