A photo of an energy-darshan style moment: a figure in an orange-and-saffron garment with a shawl, wearing a long strand of brown rudraksha beads and a wide tiered bell-studded necklace across the shoulder, places both palms on the forehead of a man in a white collared shirt and a name badge who stands with eyes closed and hands raised to his temple. The background is a dim room with red drapery and red stage light. The darshan-giver appears to be a long-haired figure whose appearance is uncertain for identification purposes. Two people are visible.

The seated devotee's eyes are closed as he receives the blessing. A red silk curtain hangs behind them, and other people are partly visible at the edges of the frame.2012-07-19A photograph of an energy-darshan style blessing in a warmly lit hall with red curtains. A man with grey hair and a moustache, wearing a white kurta and an orange saffron shawl, stands with eyes closed and arms raised, while a bare-chested figure with long swept-back dark hair, rudraksha malas and a gold-toned bell-studded adornment across the shoulders places a hand on his forehead. The blessed man wears a yellow thread and metal bracelet. Behind them a person in a grey t-shirt with a lanyard stands partly visible. Probable Swamiji (probable): the bare-chested figure with long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ornate shoulder adornments performs the blessing, and is in person.2012-07-19A photograph of a blessing moment indoors against a red drape. A figure in orange with a bare upper back, long dark hair, rudraksha bracelets and a belt of small bells extends one arm and places a palm on the head of a man in a white kurta with an orange shawl, who has his eyes closed. A wristwatch and a small white tag are visible on the man's wrist. Other people in orange and green stand softly in the background. The gesture suggests a darshan or energy transmission, with the figure in the central position described by the page as a person depiction context, though the figure's appearance is not confidently identified.2012-07-19A photograph of a seated man in white kurta-style clothing with eyes closed and hands raised in a receptive gesture, receiving a blessing as another man places a hand on his forehead. The blessing-giver has long dark hair swept back, a saffron-orange cloth draped over his shoulder and bare chest, a rudraksha bracelet and arm band, a row of metal bells hanging across his chest, and a sheet of paper in his other hand. A red curtain and dim red lighting form the background, with other seated people visible behind. The appearance is consistent with the a person label on this page, given the long hair, saffron cloth and rudraksha adornment, though the face is not clearly visible enough to confirm identity; the blessing-giver is a teacher figure performing a satsang-style blessing.2012-07-19July 19 20122012-07-19July 17 20122012-07-17September 07 20122012-09-07A photograph of a bare-chested man with long swept-back dark hair, a white tripunda marking and red bindi on his forehead, wearing a leopard-print shawl over a red cloth, a gold necklace and many rudraksha and white bead malas.
