July 21 20102010-07-21July 22 20102010-07-22A photograph of a seated figure in an orange saffron robe with long dark hair, sitting in a chair and placing one hand on the forehead of a kneeling man in a white collared shirt. The red-painted wall and tiled floor suggest an indoor hall. A person in white is partly visible at the top left. The orange-robed figure has long swept-back hair and a shawl-style wrap, cues consistent with the page's a person label, so the appearance-based candidate is a person, giving a blessing to a devotee.2007-01-02A photograph of a seated man in long, swept-back dark hair and an orange saffron robe, smiling broadly as he places his right palm on the head of a young man in a white shirt who kneels with bowed head and closed eyes. Behind them, a red-and-white wooden platform, a white-robed attendant in an orange stole, a tripod-mounted camera and a wicker basket are visible. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears saffron robes, long swept-back hair and a red bindi, consistent with a blessing role. Two people are visible.2006-10-29A photograph of a long-haired man in a loose saffron-orange wrap, bare-shouldered, seated on the left and placing his right hand on the head of a kneeling devotee. The devotee wears a white short-sleeved shirt, a brown rudraksha-style mala, a wristwatch and a bangle, and presses his palms together in anjali. They sit on a blue mat with a red cloth beneath, inside a pavilion with concrete walls. A woman in white sits on a bench in the background. The saffron-clad figure's appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a ratha yatra event, with long hair and orange clothing, but the identification is uncertain. The scene resembles a blessing or darshan moment.2006-10-29A long-haired person in an orange saffron cloth draped over one shoulder, with a red bindi on the forehead, sits on a white cloth and places one palm on the crown of a short-haired man in a white shirt who kneels before them with hands together. A metal stand with an adjustable arm stands between them on a blue-grey mat. Behind them are a red-painted step, a grey concrete wall and a window with cardboard boxes. The orange-clad person has bare shoulders and upper chest, and the scene reads as a blessing or healing touch.2006-10-29A seated long-haired man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl places his right hand on the head of a kneeling man in a white-and-grey striped shirt who presses his palms together in namaskar. The blessing takes place indoors on a blue mat beside a microphone and a black amplifier, with white curtains and a window behind. Two boys sit on the right in the background, and a small sign or card lies at the lower left edge. The saffron-clad man has long hair and distinctive orange robes, consistent with the Swamiji (probable) presentation, giving blessing to a devotee.2006-10-29A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange saffron garment, his bare chest and shoulder exposed, seated on a white cloth-covered seat and placing his right hand on the crown of a seated man's head.

A red-and-grey step and a metal stand with a microphone appear behind them in a plain concrete room.2006-10-29A photograph of a seated figure in an orange-saffron robe with a long swept-back hair and a rudraksha-style orange-brown bead mala draped over the shoulders, placing his right hand on the forehead of a middle-aged man in a white t-shirt with an orange lanyard.
