A photo of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with red tiger-striped cushions, wearing an orange robe and a long rope-like garland with coloured beads, placing a hand on the head of a small girl in a pink top with curly hair. Behind them stands a man in an orange robe with a red mark on his forehead, and at left a man in a white shirt watches. A red backdrop with golden temple motifs and trees appear behind. The seated figure has long swept-back dark hair and orange robes with a rudraksha-style garland, cues matching Swamiji (probable) receiving or blessing a child.

A man in a white shirt stands at left with his back partly turned, a young woman in a white top and yellow shawl stands behind the throne, and another man in orange clothing stands at the rear beside a red-and-gold backdrop. The scene appears to be a darshan at a stage event.2009-12-16A man seated on a red-cushioned golden throne with a gold lion-head armrest places his right hand on the head of a young girl in a purple top kneeling before him. He wears an orange-brown draped garment with a leopard-print cloth, a loose pink and white flower garland, and a white forehead mark. A silver trident-topped staff stands beside the throne, and a pile of pink rose petals lies on his lap. Behind them a woman in a white outfit with an orange shawl and a rudraksha mala, and another woman in white with an orange shawl, watch. A banner of temple imagery stands at left.

Behind him, a man in orange robes with a ceremonial necklace and a man in white kurta with a rudraksha mala stand near marigold garlands.

Swamiji (probable) appears as the seated figure, identified by his saffron robes, swept-back hair, rudraksha-adorned presence and throne seat, in a blessing gesture with the child.2009-09-11December 24 20092009-12-24August 02 20102010-08-02 +1 copiesA young girl in a bright yellow-gold silk dress with gold trim kneels before a seated man on a red cushioned throne with ornate gold carved backrest.

A seated man with long swept-back dark hair wears an orange robe and a large garland of red, yellow, purple and white flowers, and smiles as a small child in a pink top and pink trousers reaches toward him. A second man in an orange robe and orange head wrap, with gold necklaces and glasses, holds the child steady beside him. A woman with dark hair is partly visible at the left edge. Red flower petals are scattered on the cushion. The seated man's long hair, orange robe and garland match the page's note that Swamiji appears, so he is a probable candidate; the standing priest is not a candidate.2009-12-24November 22 20092009-11-22
