A photograph of a person in an orange saffron robe with a long rudraksha mala and hair in a topknot leaning forward to touch foreheads with a seated man in a white shirt and wheelchair. A pink backdrop with large gear-like graphic shapes and a warm light sits behind them, with a hand from the right edge reaching into frame. The orange-robed figure has long dark hair pulled up, with rudraksha beads hanging to the waist, and the seated man has short grey hair and is in a wheelchair. The moment appears to be a blessing or darshan exchange.2011-07-06A photograph of a saffron-robed figure bending forward to press his forehead against the head of a seated man in a wheelchair. The robed figure wears a long rudraksha mala with dark beads, has hair tied in a topknot, and a white dressing is taped to his upper arm. The seated man, grey-haired and wearing a white shirt, has his eyes closed. A hand in a gold bangle reaches in from the right edge. Behind them is a pink wall with large stylised gear and cog graphics, and a gold ornamental object appears at the left edge.2011-07-06July 06 20112011-07-06A photograph of a sannyasi in a saffron-orange robe leaning forward to press her forehead against the head of a seated man in a white shirt and wheelchair. The sannyasi, with hair tied in a bun, wears a long rudraksha mala that hangs down past her waist, and a white dressing is taped to her upper arm. The man has closed eyes and short grey hair. Behind them is a pink backdrop with large dark gear and cog graphics, and a small lamp flame glows near the figures; a gold ornament is visible at the left edge. A hand in a gold bracelet reaches in from the lower right. The scene suggests a blessing or darshan. Two people are visible.2011-07-06July 09 20112011-07-09A photograph of a saffron-robed sannyasi with hair tied in a topknot and a long rudraksha mala hanging from the neck leaning forward to touch foreheads with a seated man in a wheelchair wearing a white t-shirt. Behind them a pink backdrop with dark geometric motifs and a golden ornamental shape at the left edge. A white dressing is visible on the saffron-robed figure's upper arm. Two people are present in the scene.2011-07-06February 07 20122012-02-07A photograph of a seated man in an orange saffron shawl and a rudraksha mala, with a red tilak on his forehead and long swept-back dark hair, placing his right hand on the forehead of a bald older man in a white shirt who stands with both arms outstretched. The seated man sits on a dark red velvet throne draped with yellow, red, purple and white marigold garlands, with gold ornamental metalwork behind. A blessing or healing touch is being given. The man in white and the seated figure are the only two physical people visible. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears an orange saffron shawl, long swept-back hair and a rudraksha mala, seated on a garlanded throne.2011-12-18February 07 20122012-02-07A photo of a darshan-style blessing on a stage with a pink and dark backdrop printed with large gears. A bare-chested figure in an orange saffron shawl with gold trim and a gold-bead ornament in the hair places one hand on the crown of a bald, moustached man in a white shirt who raises his other hand holding a red rudraksha mala. Behind them a woman in orange clothes extends her arm. Appearance-based a person cues: long swept-back hair, orange ornate clothing and a bare upper body, so this is a probable in-person candidate performing the blessing.2011-07-10November 25 20112011-11-25December 06 20092009-12-06
