A photograph of a seated figure with long, swept-back dark hair, wearing a deep red-maroon robe and a dense brown rudraksha mala, placing his right palm on the crown of a bald man in a white kurta who bows forward with hands joined in front of his face. Behind them stand deity murti adorned with orange marigold garlands and a kalasha-like decorated structure. On the right, a woman in a red and blue ikat-patterned sari stands with palms pressed together in namaskar, and a few other people are partly visible. The scene reads as a blessing or initiation moment during a programme.

A woman in orange-brown sari stands behind a gold-trimmed ceremonial backdrop draped with garlands and gold jewellery, and several women and a child in white and orange watch nearby. The setting appears to be a temple-style abhishekam darshan. Swamiji (probable): the seated turbaned figure wears a rust turban, rudraksha malas and gold ornaments on a golden throne.2015-10-24November 22 20152015-11-22A photograph of a long-haired man with dreadlocks, a red-orange shawl wrapped over his shoulders, and multi-strand rudraksha malas with a gold necklace, seated before a silver lion-shaped throne and a silver-patterned backdrop. He smiles while placing his right hand on the head of a young boy in a white shirt with a red cloth around his neck, who is bowing forward. A red tilak mark is on the man's forehead. The man's long hair, orange-red garments and rudraksha malas match the Swamiji (probable) cues, and he appears to be giving a blessing. The stage setting and leopard-print fabric suggest a darshan. One adult and one child are visible.2017-12-16May 07 20142014-05-07July 03 20122012-07-03October 25 20152015-10-25
