A seated man in a white shirt and white dhoti wears an orange-red rudraksha mala and an orange thread on his wrist while a standing man in a light blue shirt rests a hand on his head. Beside them, a woman in a red sleeveless top wears a white jasmine garland and holds an orange cloth, and a sannyasi in orange robes with a rudraksha mala stands nearby. On the left, a woman in a white sari with gold border holds a rudraksha mala. Framed portraits hang on the wall behind, and fruit and a red cloth lie in the foreground.2009-07-16A photograph of a ceremonial blessing at an ashram. A figure in a saffron-orange robe with long dark hair and a gold-trimmed shawl stands at right, placing both hands on the head of a man in a white shirt and white dhoti who wears a red-bead mala and closes his eyes. A woman in a pink sari with white flowers in her hair kneels at lower left with palms pressed together. Behind them, several men in white ritual clothes and white caps stand among the gathered devotees. The orange-robed figure has appearance cues consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, including long swept-back hair and saffron clothing, so this is a probable Swamiji presence in person, while the other people are devotees.2005-03-08September 13 20092009-09-13 +1 copiesA photograph of a blessing scene. A woman with long dark wavy hair, wearing an orange-red sari, sits on a white-draped seat with a pink cushion and places both hands on the head of a man who kneels before her in a white shirt and grey trousers. A white flower garland lies on the orange cloth at the base of the seat, and a plate with offerings sits on a white table beside her. Behind them, standing devotees wear white kurtas and dhotis, orange shawls and rudraksha malas, with a young man in a white kurta, orange shawl and mala among them. A child in a brown patterned jacket stands at the left edge. The seated woman's appearance does not match the a person description, so she is described by role only.2008-10-19Photograph of a devotional blessing inside a hall with a crowd seated in the background. In the foreground, a man in red-orange robes with a white flower garland places his hand on the head of an older man in a white shirt and white trousers who bows forward, wearing a dark beaded mala with a pendant. A woman in a white sari with a red bindi touches the forehead of another devotee nearby, and a figure in an orange shawl stands at left. Flower garlands hang at the right edge. The clothing colours are white, orange and red, with marigold and white jasmine garlands.2009-08-02January 06 20122012-01-06July 07 20142014-07-07August 08 20092009-08-08A seated figure in a saffron-orange dhoti with a long white and red flower garland, gold armband, and sandalwood-marked forehead has a hand raised on the head of a kneeling man in a white shirt and red shawl, in a doorway. Around them, devotees in saris and white garments stand; saffron-robed attendants with rudraksha malas and white-painted foreheads stand at right, one holding a camera. Marigold garlands drape the doorway above. This appears to be a blessing or padapuja-style reception.2014-06-20July 30 20062006-07-30July 03 20142014-07-03July 30 20062006-07-30
