November 20 20112011-11-20A seated man in an orange-saffron shawl with gold border and a long rudraksha mala sits on a red-upholstered gold-backed throne, his hand resting on the forehead of an older woman in a red top and red headband. Her grey hair is pulled back. Behind them a shaven-headed man in saffron robes with a rudraksha mala stands by a red-draped table. Dark blue drapes and foliage form the background. The scene appears to be a blessing given to a devotee. The seated man is an appearance-based candidate for Swamiji (probable), identified by his long swept-back hair, saffron shawl with gold border, rudraksha mala and gold-backed throne; the identity is an appearance-based label only.2011-11-20November 20 20112011-11-20A photograph of two people exchanging a rudraksha mala at a satsang. On the left, a smiling man with hair tied up in a bun wears an orange saffron shawl over his shoulder, several rudraksha beads, and a gold-edged garment; he holds a long strand of brown rudraksha beads aloft with one hand while holding a folded paper in the other. Facing him on the right, an older woman with grey hair wears a red headband, red top and red beaded necklace, raising her palms in a receiving gesture. A red box with white papers sits between them, and a dark blue backdrop and another figure in saffron appear behind.2011-11-20November 20 20112011-11-20A seated robed figure in orange-brown drapery, with white tilak on the forehead, a rudraksha mala with gold beads at the neck, and hair tied in a bun, extends his right hand to press it onto the forehead of a standing man in a white shirt with a red scarf.
