Behind them, a row of devotees in white clothes stand with palms pressed together, and a golden deity murti glows in the background beneath orange and gold hanging tassels. Swamiji (probable): the robed figure has long swept-back hair, orange ceremonial clothing and a rudraksha-style gold bead necklace, consistent with the page's Swamiji reference.2013-04-09May 17 20132013-05-17September 15 20122012-09-15April 19 20132013-04-19A photograph of a ceremonial blessing in a hall with dark red drapes.

The man holds a sheet of white paper in his left hand. Several people in white clothes with folded hands stand at left, and another figure in orange stands behind the blessing figure.

He holds a folded white paper in one hand while the other rests on the devotee's head.
