A seated figure with long swept-back dark hair, a white forehead marking and red bindi, rudraksha malas and a gold floral necklace sits beside a golden serpent-shaped ornament and silver ritual staff. He extends his right hand to rest on the forehead of a man in a white shirt with an orange-and-dark patterned shawl, who stands with palms raised in reverence. Red drapes and a peacock-feather fan appear at the edges. The devotee receives the blessing in a darshan setting.2014-07-27May 02 20142014-05-02A seated figure on an ornate gold throne with a long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and a red-brown wrap with dark patterned cloth, smiling and touching the forehead of a kneeling man in white clothes with a red-patterned shawl and folded hands in namaskar. Behind them stands a large deity murti adorned with gold necklaces and garlands, with green foliage, orange flowers and a silver staff nearby. This appears to be a darshan blessing moment. The seated figure has cues consistent with a person with the throne and blessing role, though appearance is partly obscured by the angle.2014-12-26May 02 20142014-05-02A seated man in a saffron-orange robe with a rudraksha mala and a white tilak with red bindi sits before a red patterned backdrop and gold cushions, holding a silver ceremonial staff and smiling.
