A seated man in a rust-red sannyasi wrap and a white flower garland blesses a young boy in a white-and-red checked shirt holding a yellow banana. The blessing man sits on a red cushioned seat with a tilak on his forehead and gold bangles and earring. Behind them a woman in white with orange shawl and a second woman in orange sari stand near a row of decorated deity murti in green, red and gold garments. The setting appears to be a temple-style hall with a red curtain and a fan at right.

Behind them a woman in orange sari with rudraksha mala and glasses stands near a bright orange and red garlanded deity murti and marigold-yellow flowers, and a red patterned throne is visible at left. Count is three visible people in front plus additional partial figures; the man is a probable Swamiji candidate with long hair, saffron shawl and rudraksha-style cues, giving his blessing.2013-07-08A seated man in an orange-brown robe with a gold-and-saffron border and a long rudraksha mala sits on a gold lion-armrested throne, with white vibhuti marks on his forehead and his hair swept back. He extends his right hand to touch the forehead of a short-haired man in a white-and-grey striped shirt who kneels before him, palm raised. Behind them is a deity murti draped in green and purple cloth and decorated with red flower garlands, flanked by gold pillars and a red satin cloth. Two standing men in the background, one in a white shirt, observe. The appearance-based candidate, who has the long hair, rudraksha mala and orange robe, is labelled Swamiji (probable) in the seated-teacher role giving blessing.2013-09-28A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a gold bead necklace reaches forward to touch the forehead of an elderly woman in a white top with an orange shawl, who bows with palms pressed together. Behind him stands a golden throne with a carved lion-head armrest, a cobra-entwined staff topped with a gold finial, and a peacock-feather fan at left, against deep red draped curtains. The scene reads as a blessing given from a throne.2014-07-25September 28 20142014-09-28May 03 20142014-05-03July 11 20122012-07-11
