December 26 20102010-12-26December 26 20102010-12-26A photo of a ceremonial gathering inside a temple-like hall with colourful striped pillars. A central figure with long swept-back dark hair, a red bindi, a white and red flower garland, a gold ceremonial necklace and a pink silk garment with green border reads from a sheet of paper while holding it in both hands. An older man in a white checked shirt with a lanyard watches on the left, and a bald man in white with an orange shawl stands at the right. Several other men stand behind. The central figure shows distinctive long hair, ornate gold necklace and pink-and-gold ceremonial dress, matching the page's Swamiji (probable) label for an in-person presence.2010-12-26December 26 20102010-12-26December 26 20102010-12-26A photograph of an indoor satsang setting with colourful striped pillars with orange tassels in the background. A central figure with long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak wears a white and red flower garland with gold beads, a pink shawl with green border over bare shoulders, and an orange cloth; he smiles while holding a folded paper and a tray of offerings before him. To the left, a man in a white shirt stands with palms pressed together in namaste; further left and behind, other men in white shirts watch. On the right, a shaved-headed man in white with an orange shawl stands in profile. The figure's appearance matches the page's a person reference only partly, so the identity is uncertain.2010-12-26A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi wears a pink shawl edged in green and a white-and-red flower garland with a gold ornament. He stands with eyes lowered while a man in a white shirt presses a hand to his forehead, and several men in white shirts and light clothing stand close with hands folded in reverence, one holding a small paper. Behind them are bright orange and yellow decorative hangings and a blurred hall with more people in white. The scene reads as a devotional blessing or honouring at a satsang setting.2010-12-26A photograph of a devotional gathering in a hall with coloured cloth-wrapped pillars. A long-haired figure in a magenta sari-style garment and a white-and-red garland of flowers with gold ornaments places a hand on the forehead of a man in white clothes holding a folded paper. Other men in white dhotis and shirts stand around, one with hands joined in namaste at the left edge. A bald man in an orange-and-white robe stands at the right. Brass plates with offerings and flowers sit on a table in the foreground.
