A photograph of a blessing in an indoor hall. A figure with long dark hair in a loose braid wears an orange-brown wrap and a rudraksha mala draped over one shoulder, and extends the right hand over the head of a seated man in a white shirt with a red-orange shawl and a wristwatch, whose eyes are closed and hands are raised. The blessing giver holds a folded white paper in the left hand. A gold-trimmed orange cloth lies on a dark red velvet cushion in the foreground, with a brass vessel visible at the lower edge. Other people in white and red sit in the background, and an air conditioning unit and speaker are visible.

May 24 20132013-05-24A photograph of a seated figure with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala draped over an orange-brown robe, placing his palm on the forehead of a standing devotee in a white shirt with a red-orange shawl, while the devotee raises his own palm in blessing. Behind them, an attendant in white dhoti and orange sash stands near a white air-conditioning unit and red curtains, with a red-cushioned seat and an orange towel in the foreground. The seated figure matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of long hair and rudraksha mala, giving a blessing to a devotee at a satsang-style event.2013-05-24May 14 20132013-05-14May 14 20132013-05-14May 14 20132013-05-14A seated figure in an orange-brown robe with a rust-coloured beaded mala draped over the shoulders, long dark hair swept back, rests a hand on the forehead of a young man in a white t-shirt and an orange shawl. The seated figure holds a small card in the other hand, while the young man keeps his hands near his face and eyes lowered in devotion. Behind them stand a red velvet chair, white floor-standing air conditioners and a fan. In the lower right, an older man in white ritual cloth with a gold border and a mala sits watching.
