A third man in white with a rudraksha mala stands at left, and a blurred figure in a white shirt with blue-striped lungi is behind. The orange-robed man has long swept-back hair, a red bindi and earrings. Behind them is a colourful temple backdrop with a gold figure and red pillars.2013-06-18April 09 20132013-04-09A photograph of a smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair, a red dot on his forehead, a red-orange robe and multiple beaded gold-toned necklaces, who places his right hand on the head of a kneeling man in a grey shirt. Several other devotees in white and orange clothing stand with hands folded in prayer behind him, and a figure in orange is visible at the right edge. The setting appears to be an indoor hall with a red curtain. The robed figure's long hair, red robe, beaded necklaces and blessing gesture match a probable Swamiji, so the figure is described as Swamiji (probable) giving a blessing to a devotee.2012-04-05June 25 20132013-06-25June 20 20132013-06-20June 05 20132013-06-05A man in a white shirt with folded hands bows his head as a bare-chested man in saffron-orange cloth and a long rudraksha mala places his right hand on the devotee's forehead, giving a blessing. The blessing figure has a white band on his forehead, a gold pendant necklace, bangles and a hair bun, and smiles. Behind him stand other saffron-clad men with white forehead marks and armbands; one holds a small red plate and a pink box holds beaded malas. A dark red curtain and a large gold throne-like canopy form the background, with a camera on a tripod visible at right. Pale-clad figures at edge.2013-02-01November 14 20102010-11-14 +1 copiesA photo of a saffron-robed figure with long dark hair tied back, wearing a rudraksha mala, bare-chested with an orange wrap, raising a hand in blessing toward a line of devotees at a metal railing.
