A photograph of a satsang-style blessing. A figure in orange-saffron robes with a long dark plait and a wrapped rudraksha mala seated at the left extends an arm and hand toward the forehead of a man in a plain white shirt at the right, who keeps his eyes closed and his arms open. Behind them, a man in white dhoti-style clothing and a woman in white stand in the background against red drapes, with another seated man in white near the bottom. The scene looks like a transmission of blessing during a gathering. a person cues: the orange-robed figure has long hair and rudraksha malas, but a clear, confident identification is not possible from appearance alone.

A younger shaved-headed monk in orange robes and a rudraksha mala stands at right. A white cooler unit and a plain white wall form the backdrop. The scene reads as a blessing or padapuja-style darshan moment.2012-10-20A photograph of a seated man in long, swept-back dark hair and an orange-saffron cloth draped over his shoulder, wearing a long rudraksha mala with a white tilak on his forehead, placing his right palm on the forehead of a standing man in a white kurta with hands joined in a gesture of receiving blessing. A red curtain hangs behind them. Behind them stand several onlookers, including a bald man in orange robes wearing a rudraksha mala, and a young man in a grey t-shirt at the left edge.2012-07-06July 06 20132013-07-06A seated figure in a rust-orange wrap with long dark hair in a low ponytail, wearing red flower garlands and a gold chain, places both hands on the forehead of an older man in a white shirt with an orange-and-white cord around his neck and a rust-coloured sash at his waist. The older man holds his palms up in a blessing gesture and smiles with eyes closed. Behind them, seated women in saffron and yellow saris and rudraksha malas watch, and a further person in orange sits at right. The setting is an indoor hall with a fan, a maroon curtain and a yellow cushion. Because the page names a person, the seated figure with long hair, red garlands and a gold chain may be a person, but the appearance is uncertain.2013-05-28May 14 20132013-05-14
