A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a gold ceremonial necklace of beads, with a white-and-red tilak on his forehead, smiles while touching a white cloth to the forehead of a bowed, shaved-headed devotee in an orange shawl printed with script. Behind him stand a gold cobra and a silver staff with a ringed top, and red draped curtains fill the background. Gold lion-head armrest ornaments and a peacock-feather fan appear at the left. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, saffron robes, a gold bead necklace and a tilak, and sits on an ornate throne. The devotee is shown bowing in receipt of blessing.

Photograph of an indoor satsang setting with red draped curtains. A man with long swept-back hair, a white tilak on his forehead, a gold beaded mala and an orange-red robe sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a cobra-hooded gold back, holding a folded white paper while a man in a white shirt and orange shawl kneels with palms joined.

Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure: long swept-back hair, ceremonial gold necklace, saffron robe and throne posture. The kneeling devotee is one person.2014-07-25July 26 20142014-07-26July 25 20142014-07-25July 15 20142014-07-15A photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes with a bare shoulder, wearing a long ornate gold necklace of beads, smiling and extending his hand toward a devotee.
