February 01 20152015-02-01A photograph of a satsang-style blessing indoors among potted yellow-flowering plants. A smiling figure in an orange-red sannyasi wrap with a rudraksha mala and a bare-shouldered garment lays one hand on the crown of a seated man in a grey t-shirt while the other hand rests on his shoulder. Two women in the background, one in a dark red shawl and one in white with a red bindi, and a young boy watch. A maroon curtain hangs behind.2015-02-01February 19 20152015-02-19December 24 20142014-12-24February 01 20152015-02-01December 26 20152015-12-26December 24 20142014-12-24December 28 20142014-12-28December 04 20112011-12-04A seated man with long swept-back dark hair, a rudraksha mala and ornate gold necklaces, wearing a rust-red wrap, sits on a gilded throne-like chair and extends his hand toward an older man. The older man wears black-rimmed glasses, a grey top and a maroon shawl and stands with palms pressed together in namaskar. Behind them stand young attendants in saffron and orange robes, one with a rudraksha mala, beside a gold kalasha-like altar draped in maroon cloth with gold garlands. Dimly lit with green plants in the background, it looks like a darshan moment.2014-12-24A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned back, wearing an orange-saffron shawl over bare shoulders and a long rudraksha-style bead necklace with a gold-toned ceremonial pendant. He has long swept-back dark hair and a tilak-like mark on his forehead and is smiling as he places his right hand on the forehead of a shaved-headed man in white ritual clothing with an orange shawl. Behind them, two men in white dhoti and shirt wear orange shawls and lanyards, and a video camera operator is visible at top center. A brass oil lamp, a small potted plant and a dark red draped backdrop are in the setting. The seated man's appearance matches the page's Swamiji reference through several cues (long swept-back hair, ornate gold throne, saffron shawl, bead necklace), so this is a probable Swamiji in an act of blessing a devotee. Five or more people are visible including partially visible figures.2015-07-19A photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes with long dark hair, a white horizontal tilak and red bindi, wearing a long layered rudraksha mala with a braided rope-like necklace. He smiles with eyes closed and reaches toward a man in a red polo shirt who sits with his back to the camera, hands extended in an exchange. Behind them lush green foliage and a golden statue of multi-armed deity figures, possibly a tree-like sculptural scene. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure in saffron with rudraksha mala and long hair.2015-01-09
