A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne placing a hand on the crown of a shaved-headed man kneeling in front of him with palms joined. The seated figure wears saffron-orange robes with yellow borders and a long beaded necklace, and holds a sheet of paper in the other hand. The kneeling man wears an orange shawl with a gold border and an orange rudraksha mala. Behind them, a tray of fruit and offerings sits on a gold stand, with a few standing people in white and orange robes and a standing fan in the background. Red carpet and floral garland complete the setting.2014-02-05 +1 copiesDecember 29 20132013-12-29A photograph of two men in saffron and orange robes at a seated satsang. The man on the left sits in a tan leather chair, with a gold-bordered orange cloth over his shoulders, a long beaded orange rudraksha-style mala with a gold ornament, and a purple beaded bracelet. He raises his right hand to touch the bald head of the man on the right, who has his palms pressed together in anjali mudra, wearing orange-red cloth with printed text, rudraksha malas and hoop earrings. Behind them, seated devotees in white and red shawls watch, a laptop and papers sit on a wooden table, and a deity image is visible in the background. The blessing gesture suggests a darshan moment. The left figure's appearance, long swept-back hair, gold-bordered saffron garments and ceremonial malas, matches the page's Swamiji reference, so he is a probable Swamiji candidate, while the other man is a devotee receiving blessing.2015-07-05 +1 copiesFebruary 10 20162016-02-10 +3 copiesDecember 31 20132013-12-31 +1 copiesA seated man in a rust-orange wrap and a thick rudraksha mala with a red bindi and white forehead marks smiles while placing his right palm on the crown of a bald, bowed man in a white shirt. The seated man rests his left hand on the bowed man's shoulder. He sits on a red velvet-draped seat with a gold-ornate backrest and silver bird finial, with green leaves, a silver trident-shaped staff and a garlanded deity murti with gold and red fabric behind. A blessing gesture is being given.2015-04-26A seated man with a swept-back dark bun, white tilak on his forehead, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and bracelets, and an orange saffron cloth draped over his shoulder and torso, extends his right hand toward the forehead of a bald older man in a white shirt with an orange shawl. The older man bows his head with his palms raised in devotion. In the blurred background, another person in an orange scarf stands with hands folded. The setting appears to be an indoor satsang.2013-02-27August 26 20122012-08-26A seated figure on an ornate gold throne with a carved lion-head armrest, wearing an orange-brown silk garment and a pink-beaded necklace, places one hand on the head of a bowing devotee in a pink long-sleeved kurta and white dhoti with a rudraksha mala. The devotee bends forward with hands joined, apparently receiving blessing in a padapuja-style darshan. Behind them, several men in white dhotis and orange robes stand watching, one smiling, and a woman in a white sari stands at left. A patterned carpet covers the floor, with a water bottle and paper at lower left.2013-12-29A seated figure in a rust-red robe with a rudraksha mala draped over the shoulders, a white tilak on the forehead and hair tied back, places a hand on the head of a man in a white shirt who bows forward. The seated figure's other hand holds a sheet of printed paper. A silver trident stands between them, with green leaves of a potted plant behind it. A gold-patterned throne and red velvet draping fill the background, with garlands of yellow and orange flowers at the top right. The scene reads as a blessing given at a satsang setting.2015-04-26December 29 20132013-12-29December 31 20132013-12-31 +2 copies
