A seated man in an orange-red unstitched cloth, wearing a long rudraksha mala and his hair tied up in a knot, rests his right hand on the head of a young boy in white shirt who kneels with palms joined. Beside them, a woman in a pink-and-white sari kneels with hands folded, and another woman in white with a rudraksha mala sits watching. A silver staff with a decorative top stands behind the seated man, and a gold-coloured ceremonial object sits in the lower foreground on red fabric. Several women in saris, one in blue and one in orange-pink, stand in the background of a hall with cream walls and a dark red curtain. The seated man has distinctive visible cues of orange clothing and rudraksha malas, so this may be a person giving blessing to a devotee, though the image is not clear enough for certainty.

The boy wears a light blue t-shirt and a brown bead mala. Behind them a group of children and adults stands in a hall with a red curtain; a woman in a floral kurta wears an orange lanyard, and a young girl in white stands at right. The seated man's cues (long hair, orange wrap, mala beads) are distinctive, so this is probable Swamiji in person giving a blessing to a boy.2013-05-24July 06 20142014-07-06A photograph of a seated man in a rust-orange robe with a gold-edged border and a long rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders.
