A photograph inside a hall with a red carpet and white velvet-rope barriers. In the foreground a man in a red and gold turban, a rudraksha-style beaded necklace and gold bangles touches the forehead of an older man in white shirt and white dhoti, who has his hands folded. Around them devotees stand: a man on the left in an orange shawl and glasses, a young man in a blue checked shirt holding papers, and others in white. Behind, a shaved-headed figure in white makes a namaskar gesture near the back of the hall, with women in white and pink saris standing along the barrier. Ceiling fans, red curtains and wall displays are visible.

A person in an orange-and-gold turban, gold-bead garland, heavy gold necklace and maroon-and-gold dhoti stands at right, placing a hand on the head of a shaved-headed man in a checked shirt. Beside them an elderly man in white with a grey beard holds his palms together, and a man in white with a lanyard stands nearby. Another man in white with gold-bordered cloth and rudraksha beads holds a tray of green fruit at right. Gold-bordered white garments and a golden seat are visible in the background. Swamiji (probable) is the turbaned, gold-garlanded figure giving the blessing; the appearance cues are the saffron-orange turban, layered gold ornaments and ceremonial clothing, and the figure holds a folded paper.2013-08-16November 15 20132013-11-15November 07 20132013-11-07November 13 20132013-11-13November 21 20132013-11-21 +1 copiesNovember 05 20132013-11-05Indoor hall with a white tiled ceiling, red curtains and a projection screen showing a yellow-tinted image behind a gilded seated figure at right.
