A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala and a gold-toned ceremonial necklace places his right hand on the forehead of a seated devotee in a grey-and-white striped shirt and a red shawl, while holding a small white paper in his left hand. Golden deity murti and a gold-framed portrait with an orange turban-clad figure stand in the background on a gold-framed throne area, with a red patterned floor mat and a white offering plate nearby. The robed figure's long hair is tied back, and the setting is an indoor hall.

A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a bare upper body and a rudraksha-style brown mala necklace places his right hand on the forehead of a younger man in a grey-and-white striped polo shirt with a red shawl. The blessing giver holds a folded white paper in his left hand, and a gleaming gold deity murti or kalasha sits nearby on a red patterned mat. The setting appears to be an indoor satsang hall with cream walls. Appearance-based cues for the blessing giver include long swept-back hair and ornate saffron clothing, so he is a person candidate in person. The blessed man wears a red-orange scarf and a red wrist thread.2014-03-13March 08 20142014-03-08March 13 20142014-03-13A photograph of two men in a bright, cream-walled room with warm lighting. On the left, a shaved-head? no: a man with dark hair tied in a bun, bare-shouldered in saffron-orange cloth with a rudraksha mala and gold necklace, raises his right hand in a blessing gesture while holding a white paper in his left hand, with a gold kalasha-like vessel and a twisted white rope nearby. On the right, a man in a striped navy-and-white t-shirt wears an orange shawl printed with script, facing him attentively. Other seated people and orange cushioned chairs are blurred in the background.2014-03-08March 13 20142014-03-13October 07 20122012-10-07December 05 20132013-12-05A photograph of a long-haired man in a saffron-red robe with a gold ornate necklace and a white vibhuti mark on his forehead, reaching his right hand onto the head of a standing man in a grey-brown quilted jacket with a patterned collar.
