Behind them a woman with curly brown hair in a black printed dress stands with palms pressed together in anjali mudra.

March 20 20132013-03-20 +1 copiesJanuary 20 20102010-01-20A photograph of a long-haired figure in orange saffron robes and a red tilak on the forehead placing a hand on the bald head of a man in a white shirt, whose hands are pressed together in anjali. The man bows his head as a blessing is given. Behind them, other people in white and patterned clothing stand and kneel in an orange-walled hall, one woman bending low near the bottom of the frame, with a sign on the wall and a black speaker above. The giver of the blessing has an appearance consistent with the page's a person reference, though identity is uncertain, so it is given as a role: a sannyasi in saffron giving a blessing to a devotee.2011-08-10A photograph of a seated figure in an orange-saffron shawl draped over an orange cushioned chair, with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi on the forehead, laughing broadly. A man in a white shirt and white trousers stands at left with his back to the camera, reaching toward the seated figure's shoulder. At right a smiling woman in a cream sari with a light blue blouse and a dark beaded necklace sits beside the chair. A partially visible person in orange robes is at the far left edge. Background shows a cream drape with yellow and red flower garlands and red-and-orange fruit on the chair arms. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a bindi, so the in-person candidate is present.2010-02-14A photograph of a seated figure with long dark hair wearing a rust-orange wrap and a beaded necklace, placing both hands on the forehead of a man in a white shirt with an orange lanyard. The man stands facing him with eyes closed and hands raised to the head in a blessing-like exchange. Two men in white kurta-style clothing and orange lanyards stand in the background near a window, and a potted plant sits on the floor. The seated figure has distinctive long hair and orange-toned attire, a person cue, while the setting suggests a satsang or darshan meeting.2013-03-20A photograph of a seated man in an orange saffron shawl and sleeveless orange garment, hair tied in a bun at the back, clasping hands with a devotee in a white shirt. Beside him a woman in a white kurta with red polka dots leans forward, hands folded, and a third woman at the right edge watches. Behind them are red and gold draped cloths, garlands of white and yellow flowers, and a golden throne-like seat. The orange-clad seated man matches the page's a person appearance cues of saffron clothing and distinctive presentation; his role is a seated teacher receiving devotees. Four or more people are visible.2011-12-03A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange-saffron silk garment with a rudraksha mala draped across his chest, seated on a red cushioned seat, placing his right palm on the crown of a bald, bearded man in a white shirt who kneels before him with hands raised. A small red tilak mark is visible on the seated man's forehead. Behind them stand a brass oil lamp with a glowing flame, a pillar and red drapery, and a large painted backdrop in warm orange tones. The scene suggests a blessing or initiation moment. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, saffron garments and rudraksha beads, consistent with the page's claim.2011-11-29February 22 20132013-02-22 +1 copiesA photograph of a satsang setting. A figure with long, swept-back dark hair wears an orange-saffron shawl draped over the shoulders and sits on a cushioned seat beside a microphone and a small wooden table with flowers and an orange towel. Facing this figure, a man with short grey-streaked hair and a moustache, dressed in a white shirt and white trousers, sits close and gestures with his hands in a discussion gesture. Behind them a person in red clothing is partly visible at the right edge. The probable Swamiji cues are long hair and orange-saffron shawl, so the seated figure is listed as probable.2011-01-21Indoor satsang scene in a bright room with a potted palm and a sheer curtain. A long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes, a saffron-orange rudraksha mala and gold bangles stands at left, raising one hand toward the forehead of a short-haired man in a white t-shirt who lifts his palms in response. A seated monk in saffron robes and a red tilak on his forehead sits at lower centre, and another man in white stands in the background near a window. A white cooler sits at right edge.2013-03-22March 20 20132013-03-20January 08 20122012-01-08
