A bearded man in an orange sleeveless top and a long white floral garland stands at left, his hands on the head of a seated devotee in a cream short-sleeved shirt who leans forward with eyes closed. Behind them, out of focus, another person in light clothing and a red-and-white flower arrangement fill the foreground at left. The figure in orange has long, swept-back dark hair and a full beard, with distinctive saffron clothing and a garland, which are visible appearance cues, but his face is partly in shadow and his identity cannot be confirmed from the image itself, so he is labelled only as a probable Swamiji by appearance. The scene suggests a blessing being given to a devotee, with a sandalwood-coloured tilak mark visible on the figure in orange.2010-02-07A man with long dark hair, wearing an orange sleeveless top and a white-and-orange shawl draped over his shoulders with a white and yellow flower garland, places his hands on the forehead and head of a younger man in a white kurta and orange dhoti. Both stand close together in a hall with a dark wooden ceiling and fluorescent lights. Behind them, a crowd of devotees, several women in saris, watches; a red flower garland hangs at the left edge beside a gold-coloured object. Swamiji (probable): the long-haired man wears an orange top and garland with long swept hair, a clothing cue consistent with the page, so he is marked as in_person.2010-02-07January 22 20102010-01-22July 07 20102010-07-07 +1 copiesA seated man in an orange sleeveless robe with long, swept-back dark hair touches the forehead of a man in white kurta and white shirt with long dark hair, who has his eyes closed. The seated figure sits on a red cushioned throne-like seat beside an ornate gold chair and a brass oil lamp with a lit flame. Microphones sit in the foreground, and a camera operator and seated devotees appear in the background. Cues such as the orange robe, long swept-back hair and seated position support a probable Swamiji identification, presented here only as an appearance-based label. The white-clad recipient has a blue lanyard around his neck. The setting is a hall with a beige wall and a dark curtain at left.2010-12-02November 18 20102010-11-18 +1 copiesA photograph of a figure in a sleeveless saffron-orange robe with long dark hair tied back in a low knot, placing his right hand on the crown of a man's head. The recipient, in a white shirt with a dark tie, has eyes lowered and hands held together in a respectful gesture. Blurred people in white and yellow clothing stand in the background of an indoor hall with pale pink walls and windows. The figure in orange has a distinctive long swept hair and saffron clothing; his identity is not established by appearance alone, so he is described by role as the giver of blessing.2009-12-15A photograph of an indoor gathering in dim, warm light.
