A photograph of a long-haired figure in a saffron-orange robe and a rudraksha mala, seated and reaching forward to place a hand on the head of a man in a white shirt and white trousers, who bows with his arm raised. Behind them, a deity murti is decorated with colourful garlands in yellow, red, purple and green, and a woman in white stands nearby. Another man in white with a red shawl stands in the background. The figure in saffron appears to be Swamiji (probable), based on the long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala. The scene suggests a blessing or padapuja-style ritual.
