Photograph inside a plain white-walled room with a wall-mounted air conditioner and an electrical panel. A young man with short hair in an orange saffron robe with a maroon border and a rudraksha mala places a red-beaded garland over the head of a man in a white polo shirt and dark trousers, who holds a black backpack. Another man in a white shirt stands behind, with a doorway and greenery visible beyond. The scene reads as a devotee receiving a garland from a sannyasi; no identity is established from appearance, so the robed figure is described by role only.

October 07 20122012-10-07April 02 20132013-04-02A photograph of an indoor devotional gathering. A man with long dark hair swept back, wearing an orange saffron shawl and draped orange garment, multiple rudraksha malas and a rudraksha bracelet, smiles while placing his right hand on the forehead of a young man in a white shirt whose palms are pressed together in namaskar. Several robed attendants in white and orange stand around, a cameraman holding a camera raises it at left, and devotees and framed portraits line the hall. The orange-clad figure has distinctive long swept hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha malas, matching the page's a person reference, so this is a probable identification from appearance, not a confirmed one.2011-11-08November 17 20112011-11-17October 27 20102010-10-27October 07 20122012-10-07December 11 20112011-12-11October 07 20122012-10-07 +1 copiesA photograph of a ritual blessing in an indoor hall. A man with short grey hair and rimless glasses, wearing a white kurta and a rudraksha mala, bows with folded hands while a man in a saffron-orange dhoti and a rudraksha mala places his hand on the bowed man's head. The blessing man has long dark hair tied back, a white tilak on his forehead, and is smiling. Behind them, a man in a saffron garment wears gold chains, and other men in white clothes stand nearby, with a brass tray visible at lower right. Colourful striped pillars and an orange cloth hang in the background. A photo of the blessing man with a rudraksha mala and saffron dress has the appearance-based label Swamiji (probable), given the page's yes flag and the qualifying cues of long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beads.2010-11-30November 07 20132013-11-07August 17 20132013-08-17July 02 20102010-07-02 +1 copies
