A photo of a seated man in a red-orange dhoti-style robe with rudraksha malas and a gold ornament, placing his hand on the bald head of a kneeling devotee in white kurta and maroon vest with a conference badge. A standing woman in white with a white forehead mark watches, and a woman in orange sari with a rudraksha mala stands behind. Red carpet, potted plants and a gold-coloured throne or cushion are visible. The seated figure has long swept-back hair and a white forehead mark, with rudraksha malas, consistent with a person in a ritual blessing gesture; the blessing is an abhishekam-style touch of the head.

Behind them, a seated woman in white and a woman in white clothing sit on red cushions beside a tall silver ceremonial staff, while other people in white stand in a red-draped hall with stage lights overhead. Probable Swamiji cues include the long hair in a bun, the ornate gold bead necklace and the leopard-print wrap, and he is shown giving blessing to a devotee.2014-08-02A photograph of a satsang darshan in which a figure in a bare-shouldered orange-saffron cloth with a gold necklace and a bun of dark hair places one hand on the crown of an elderly, white-haired man in a white kurta who wears a rudraksha mala and kneels before him. A standing man in an orange cloth and rudraksha mala watches beside a magenta-red drape, and another man in a salmon-pink top stands at the back left. The visible figure's appearance is consistent with the page's cues of swept-back hair, saffron clothing and gold ornaments, so he is labelled Swamiji (probable) as the one giving blessing.2012-08-22 +1 copiesNovember 06 20132013-11-06April 25 20142014-04-25November 02 20142014-11-02March 03 20152015-03-03September 28 20132013-09-28A photograph from an indoor darshan session with a red carpet on the floor.
