A seated man in an orange-red saffron robe and a long beaded mala with dark-and-gold beads sits on a gilded throne with ornate gold carvings. He holds a folded paper or card, and a second man in a white kurta with an orange-and-brown shawl kneels before him with palms pressed together in namaste. Behind them stands a silver trident (trishul) with a gold-toned pendant, a red curtain, and vertical white ribbed panels, with a peacock-feather fan at the left edge. The seated figure may be a person, given his saffron robe, mala and ornate throne, though his appearance is not conclusive.

A photograph of a man in saffron-orange robes and a long gold bead necklace seated on a red cushioned seat, smiling as he reaches out to touch a silver trident-shaped staff with a red gem to the forehead of a young man in a white kurta and orange shawl. A golden deity murti and green plants are in the background, with a wooden-slatted wall and a window at left. Only the two men are physically present. The man in saffron wears a long hair style and a rudraksha-style gold bead necklace, a cue consistent with the Swamiji (probable) label, while the young man stands before him with a hand raised in surprise. The setting resembles a darshan or blessing moment.2014-08-01A photograph of two men in a bright interior facing each other closely. On the left, a figure with long dark swept-back hair and a red bindi wears an orange-saffron shawl over the shoulder and a dark rudraksha mala, and extends a hand toward the other man. On the right, a bald man in a plain white garment and a dark rudraksha mala holds a white paper and listens. Behind them are brass oil lamps with a lit warm glow and a pale wall.2011-11-29September 13 20142014-09-13January 11 20142014-01-11September 01 20142014-09-01A seated man in red-orange robes, with a rudraksha mala necklace, a bare chest, and a small microphone clipped to his collar, smiles while extending his hand to a kneeling devotee in a white t-shirt who holds a fruit or offering. Behind him stands another man in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala and white tripundra markings, and a golden ornate throne with red zebra-patterned cushions fills the background beside red velvet drapes. Probable Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, with long swept-back hair, ornate gold-bordered red cloth, and rudraksha malas, receiving an offering during what appears to be a satsang setting.2014-04-17December 22 20122012-12-22September 09 20142014-09-09A man with long dark hair tied back, wearing a gold ceremonial necklace of beads, an orange-red shawl and a rudraksha mala, sits on a throne with golden lion-head armrests in front of red draperies. He smiles and extends his hands toward a young girl in a white t-shirt with a rudraksha-style bead necklace and a pink hair tie, who kneels before him. A tall silver staff topped with a cylindrical finial stands beside them, and a carved wooden cobra-head staff rests near the throne. A woman in white with a red bindi is partly visible at the right edge. The scene suggests a seated teacher blessing a child during a ceremony.2014-07-24October 12 20172017-10-12December 09 20152015-12-09May 03 20142014-05-03
