A man with long dark hair tied back, wearing an orange saffron robe with a sleeveless top, places his right hand on the crown of a balding older man kneeling in a white shirt, whose head is bowed. Behind them, a second saffron-robed young man sits on the left, and standing figures in white shirts and orange shawls stand at the back. A rudraksha mala hangs on a white-shirted standing man. On a white-draped table in front are a plate with flowers, fruit, and ritual items. Based on the appearance of the man giving the blessing, with long hair, saffron robes and a rudraksha mala, he is probable Swamiji, shown in an in-person healing darshan role.2008-03-20Outdoor photo of a seated man in an orange robe with long, swept-back black hair and a rudraksha mala, smiling as another man in white kneels before him with palms pressed together and an extended hand touching his head. Several standing men and women in white clothes watch around them; one woman wears a white sari with a gold border, and a pink-clad figure appears at the right edge. A woman in the foreground sits with her hair in a bun, and a small red and white offering sits near the seated man's lap on a dry, sandy ground. Swamiji (probable) is seated in orange saffron robes with long hair and a rudraksha mala, receiving a blessing.2006-07-12April 19 20082008-04-19Outdoor ceremony under a canopy strung with colourful tassels in red, yellow, green and white. A man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing an orange shawl, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and a gold chain, sits on a white-cushioned seat, with a white cloth-draped tray before him. Nearby a man in an orange robe sits behind him, and a man in white clothing stands with one arm raised holding a striped pole. In the foreground a woman in orange with hair in a bun sits with hands held together, and a person with hands folded in añjali is at left. The swamiji candidate matches long hair, saffron clothing and ornate necklaces, so this is an appearance-based probable identification.2008-04-19July 12 20062006-07-12A photograph of a seated figure with long dark hair wearing an orange sleeveless garment and a white and pink flower garland, placing both hands on the head of a kneeling man in a white shirt and white dhoti who bows forward. A shaved-headed monk in orange robes and a gold necklace sits at the left, and a woman and another person in white garments are partly visible at the bottom. The gesture appears to be a blessing given to a devotee. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, an orange garment and a white flower garland, matching the page's identification of Swamiji at this event.2010-01-10June 04 20062006-06-04
