He raises his right hand, palm open, toward the forehead of a devotee. Around him, several devotees in white dhotis and kurtas with red shawls and white headbands stand and bend forward, one bare-chested with a gold-bordered white cloth over his shoulder. The setting appears to be an indoor hall with a signboard reading live in 34 centers, 47 courses, 32 temples, and global 2-way video chat behind them. Some devotees wear rudraksha malas. The scene looks like a blessing or darshan moment.2015-09-15September 15 20152015-09-15September 15 20152015-09-15September 15 20152015-09-15September 15 20152015-09-15 +1 copiesSeptember 15 20152015-09-15September 15 20152015-09-15A photograph of a seated figure in an orange-red turban and orange-saffron robe, wearing a rudraksha-style bead mala and a gold ceremonial necklace, extending his right hand to bless or touch the head of a man bowing before him.
