A photograph of a seated figure in a red-maroon garment with gold border, wearing beaded rudraksha-style bracelets and necklaces, with a white tilak on the forehead. He is extending his right arm and hand toward a standing man in a white shirt and white dhoti, who is placing his hand on his own forehead in a reverent gesture. A red digital wristwatch is visible on the standing man's wrist, and a golden object is partly visible at lower left. The setting has beige panelled walls and a green EXIT sign.

December 05 20132013-12-05Photograph of a seated figure in an orange-brown robe with a long rudraksha-style bead necklace and beaded bracelets, the left figure, extending a raised hand toward the forehead of a man in a white polo shirt with a long grey ponytail and a beaded mala, who holds his palms up in front of him. Golden lion-head armrests of a red-cushioned throne-like seat flank the scene. The seated figure has white vibhuti on the forehead. A small purple bird logo appears in the upper left corner.2013-12-05A seated man in a rust-orange garment with a bare shoulder, wearing a red and white beaded mala and silver beaded armlets, sits on a golden cushion and extends his arm forward. Opposite him, a shaved-headed man in a white kurta with a beaded mala raises his palm toward the seated man's hand in a blessing gesture. A white forehead marking is visible on the seated man. Beige wall panels and a black speaker stack form the background, with a golden fabric draped at the lower left.2013-12-05December 05 20132013-12-05December 10 20132013-12-10December 05 20132013-12-05December 10 20132013-12-10May 09 20142014-05-09December 03 20132013-12-03A photograph of a blessing exchange indoors. A man with long dark hair in a bun, bare-shouldered in a rust-brown cloth with a gold ceremonial necklace of beads, presses his right palm to the forehead of a shorter, grey-haired man in a white kurta with a red and white beaded mala around his neck. A woman in white sits blurred in the lower right, and a pale curtain and dark wall form the background. The gesture resembles a padapuja-style blessing, with the standing figure giving the blessing and the other receiving it. Swamiji (probable): the figure in rust-brown with long hair, bun and gold beaded necklace; he is giving the blessing.2013-12-17A photograph of two men in a hall with beige wall panels. On the left, a bare-chested man with long swept-back dark hair, white and red forehead markings, a maroon wrap with gold trim, and layered silver-beaded bracelets and a long beaded necklace, extends his right arm and hand to touch the forehead of a man on the right. That man, with short dark hair and a moustache, wears a white short-sleeved collared shirt and stands with his palm raised. A golden lion-head sculpture and a dark speaker stand behind them, and a partly visible person appears at the right edge. The gesture suggests a blessing given in a satsang setting. The left figure matches Swamiji (probable) by long swept-back hair, bare chest, maroon wrap, beaded necklace and bracelets.2013-12-05December 03 20132013-12-03
