Photograph of a satsang-style blessing. A long-haired man with dark wavy hair, wearing an orange cloth wrapped over one shoulder with a blue-edged border and rudraksha bracelets on his wrist, places his palm on the forehead of a kneeling devotee. The devotee has brown hair, wears a white kurta and an orange shawl, and holds his hands up in a receiving gesture. Two more people in white and orange sit blurred in the background beside a window. The presentation of the man with long hair, orange clothing, rudraksha bracelets and a gold neck ornament is consistent with Swamiji (probable), giving a forehead blessing to a devotee at a satsang.
