Photograph of a seated figure in an orange-red turban and orange-red robe with a pink and white flower garland, extending a hand in blessing toward a young man in a light blue striped shirt who kneels and holds a red fruit in cupped hands. Behind them a woman in a cream sari with gold border and a brown-beaded necklace stands holding a small blue tray, and other women in white and cream clothing watch. A gilded throne is visible at left. The scene suggests a blessing or darshan, with the seated figure matching the visible cues of an ornate turban, garland and saffron clothing, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) in person, giving blessing to a devotee.
