A photograph of a man in a white shirt and orange-patterned shawl raising one arm toward a seated figure in a rust-orange robe with a white forehead band and a dark tilak mark, wearing a garland of pink lotus blossoms and clear beads. The seated figure, with long dark hair, turns to look upward toward the raised hand. Behind them stands an ornate gold-leaf throne back with scrolling relief patterns. The scene suggests a blessing or ceremonial gesture. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's cues include long hair, a crown-style head covering, saffron-toned robe, rudraksha beads and a gold necklace, and is seated before an ornate throne.

A seated bearded man with long swept-back dark hair, a white tilak band and red bindi on his forehead, wears a rust-brown sleeveless robe, a pink-and-white flower garland, a crystal and rudraksha mala, and a gold necklace. He smiles while a second man in a white shirt with an orange shawl leans in, one hand on the seated man's head. Behind them is an ornate gold-carved throne with a red cushion. The seated man's distinctive long hair, ceremonial gold necklace and rudraksha mala are visible, so he is described as a probable Swamiji, seated in a blessing scene.2017-03-03April 25 20172017-04-25A photograph of a bearded man seated on an ornate gold-embossed throne with a red cushion, wearing a rudraksha crown, a white and red tilak on the forehead, a red-brown cloth draped over the shoulders, a gold necklace, and layered garlands of pink flowers and white blooms.
