A photograph of a long-haired person in an orange-red garment and a layered orange and gold beaded necklace placing both palms on the head of a bearded man in a white embroidered kurta. The bearded man has his hands raised beside his head and his eyes closed in a calm expression. The setting is an indoor room with a plain beige wall and a window at the top. Other people in white and orange clothing stand in the background. The long-haired figure's appearance and adornments (long hair, orange garment, ornate gold necklace) match the page's description of Swamiji, so this is a probable identification from appearance cues. The scene shows a blessing gesture of hands on the head.

A second seated person in white with a rudraksha mala bows forward in the foreground. Two men stand in the background near a window, and a potted plant and a cooler sit on the sides of an indoor hall. The seated figure is a probable Swamiji by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, orange-red garments and gold-and-bead necklaces, consistent with the page's Swamiji reference; this is an appearance-based candidate only. The gesture is a forehead blessing given during a satsang setting.2013-03-17A photograph of a seated figure with long dark hair wearing a rust-orange wrap and a beaded necklace, placing both hands on the forehead of a man in a white shirt with an orange lanyard.
