Photograph from a stage event: a man seated on a leopard-print cushioned seat wears an orange-saffron robe, a leopard-print headpiece with a crescent ornament, multiple rudraksha malas across chest and arm, and a red bracelet, with white and red tilak on the forehead. He raises one open palm toward a bald, grey-haired man in a white shirt and rudraksha mala who stands with his back to the camera, hand raised in return. A fiery orange-red backdrop and a metal drum edge appear at left. Appearance-based cues are distinctive (headpiece, saffron robe, malas), so the seated figure is a person in person, giving a sadashiva-style blessing to a devotee. Person count is two.

Photograph of a stage darshan. A bearded man in a rust-orange robe and a leopard-print headwrap with a crescent ornament sits on a leopard-print throne, smiling as he rests his right hand on the head of a shorter man with dark hair who is wearing a white kurta and rudraksha beads. The seated man wears rudraksha malas on his neck and arm and a red tilak on his forehead. Behind them a large blurred orange and red fire-like backdrop fills the stage, and a silver drum is partly visible at the left edge. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears long swept-back hair, a crescent-topped headwrap, saffron-orange robes and rudraksha malas, and is seated as the giver of blessing, so he is marked probable. The kneeling devotee receives blessing.2017-09-18September 18 20172017-09-18September 18 20172017-09-18September 18 20172017-09-18 +1 copiesAugust 10 20172017-08-10September 18 20172017-09-18 +1 copiesApril 08 20182018-04-08 +1 copiesOctober 01 20172017-10-01September 18 20172017-09-18December 16 20172017-12-16July 06 20122012-07-06A seated man with long dreadlocks, a white horizontal forehead mark, and a saffron-orange shawl over his shoulders places his right hand on the head of a young boy in white clothes wearing a red rudraksha mala. The man sits on an ornate gold throne beside a leopard-print cushion and brass lamps, with a red curtain behind. Other people, one in a white garment with red bracelets, hold their hands together in anjali or touch the boy, with a woman partially visible at right. The scene is a blessing or darshan at a KAILASA event. The seated man has distinctive long dreadlocks, saffron clothing and a throne, so this is an appearance-based a person candidate.2018-05-04
