A crowded indoor hall with plain white walls, a ceiling fan and fluorescent lights. At the centre, a long-haired figure in an orange-saffron garment wears a thick pink flower garland and holds a bunch of bananas that a man in a white shirt is reaching toward. Around them, men in white shirts and dhotis press close, one man in a white cap stands behind, and women in white saris with red borders stand at the right. A cameraman on a raised position behind the group films the scene. Several people in the foreground are seen from behind.

A long-haired man in an orange saffron robe, with layered rudraksha malas and a gold necklace, smiles while raising his right palm toward the forehead of a standing devotee in a white shirt with folded hands. Around him, several men in white and grey shirts press palms together in greeting; a man at right, bald and in an orange cloth, holds a tray. A videographer lifts a camera at upper left, and a portrait with a black-and-white figure hangs on the backdrop. Probable Swamiji is the orange-robed man giving the blessing, identified by his long swept-back hair and rudraksha malas.2011-11-06A photograph of a temple-side offering scene in a plain white-walled room. A long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes with a white flower garland and green leaf garland extends a brass tray of fruit and offerings toward a bare-chested priest with a beard, sacred thread and rudraksha-style beads, who holds the tray. Behind them an elderly man in white with a red-and-gold shawl and forehead markings watches. Men in white shirts and dhotis, and orange-clad attendants, stand around, one with a microphone stand in the foreground.2007-01-12January 12 20072007-01-12January 12 20072007-01-12January 12 20072007-01-12A photograph of a crowded indoor hall with pillars, ceiling fans and long tables, where many men in white shirts and dhotis, plus some in saffron scarves, gather around a central figure. A smiling person with long dark hair wears a large pink-red flower garland and an orange shawl, clasping hands with a man in a white shirt. Others crowd close, some with folded palms, and a camera rig is visible at the right edge. Several people stand in the background among tables. The setting suggests a reception or felicitation. Swamiji (probable): the central garlanded figure has long swept-back hair and an orange shawl, a cue for the page's Swamiji claim, so in_person is used with the appearance caveat.2007-01-12A photograph of a felicitation at a temple setting. A figure with long dark hair, wearing an orange saffron robe and a large white and yellow flower garland with green leaves, smiles and reaches toward a silver tray held by an older man in a gold-and-red patterned shawl with a red tilak on his forehead. The tray holds bananas, a lime, and offering items. Around them stand men in white shirts and dhotis, including a bespectacled man on the left and a bearded man in orange shawl and rudraksha mala behind. A microphone is visible in the foreground. Several other people stand in the background against a plain white wall.2007-01-12January 12 20072007-01-12
