Photo of two men in orange garments indoors against a plain white wall. On the left, a bare-shouldered man with short dark hair and an orange shawl places his right hand over the forehead and eyes of the seated man on the right, performing a blessing-style gesture. The seated man wears a long, flowing orange robe, has long black hair, and a white horizontal mark across his forehead. Behind him is an ornate gold carved throne or seat. A gold leaf-shaped design appears in the upper left corner. Swamiji (probable) is the seated man with long black hair, orange robes and a white forehead mark, seated on an ornate golden throne.

Photo of two men in orange-saffron robes indoors against a pale wall. On the left, a bare-shouldered man with short dark hair, a small red bindi and an orange shawl wrapped over one shoulder places his right hand over the forehead and eyes of a seated man. The seated man has long swept-back black hair, a white horizontal tilak band across his forehead, and an orange robe, and sits before an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork. His right palm is raised near his chest. A blue sign with white text is partly visible at upper left, and a purple bird logo appears in the corner.2009-07-06July 07 20092009-07-07July 06 20092009-07-06July 06 20092009-07-06A standing man in orange robes with hair tied in a bun leans toward a seated figure, reaching out with his right hand to touch the outstretched palm of the figure. The seated figure is a lifelike statue or waxwork with long dark hair, a white vertical forehead mark and a red bindi, wearing a red-orange shawl and seated on an ornate gold throne with carved floral backrest. The plain white wall behind them is bare. The setting suggests a darshan or murti display rather than a live gathering.2009-07-06A photograph of two men seated on a white sofa before a deep red velvet curtain. On the right, a long-haired man wears an orange saffron robe with a rudraksha mala draped over his chest, a red bindi and white tilak on his forehead, and gazes to the side. His hand rests on the head of the man on the left, who wears a white dhoti and shirt with a gold border, a gold wristwatch, and has his palm raised toward the figure on the right in a gesture of reverence. The setting appears to be a formal satsang or discourse hall.2007-01-27A standing man in an orange-saffron shawl and dhoti, with long dark hair tied in a bun, reaches toward the head of a seated figure in a saffron robe with a white tilak on the forehead. The seated figure sits cross-legged on a red-and-black tiger-print cushion inside an ornate gold-leaf throne with carved scrollwork. Behind them a white wall, a framed photograph of a seated saffron-clad figure, and a shelf with small items are visible. The scene reads as a devotee touching the head of a revered figure seated on a throne, possibly during darshan. The seated figure appears to be a statue or lifelike figure rather than a living person, given the stillness and wax-like finish.2009-07-06November 20 20112011-11-20December 11 20112011-12-11 +1 copiesJuly 06 20092009-07-06April 22 20122012-04-22 +1 copiesJuly 07 20092009-07-07
