March 30 20122012-03-30A photograph of a seated man in an orange turban, orange shawl and red and yellow marigold garland placing his right hand on the head of a man in a white shirt, who faces away from the camera. The seated man wears a red tilak mark and a gold ornament on his turban, and his long dark hair falls past his shoulders. Another hand rests on the white-shirted man's shoulder. Red and pink string lights and a floral arrangement frame the scene. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure in orange turban, orange shawl, rudraksha-style red beaded garland and long swept-back hair, giving a blessing.2012-03-30March 30 20122012-03-30Photograph of a seated man in an orange turban and orange-and-gold robe, with a red and white flower garland and a gold-coloured necklace, being touched on the forehead by a kneeling man in a white shirt whose palms are pressed together in namaskar. The seated figure's hair is long and swept back, and he sits on a cream upholstered chair draped with a tiger-stripe cloth. Behind them are string lights of red and pink bokeh, orange drapes and floral arrangements. A red tray with offerings sits at lower left. Two physical people are visible. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears a saffron turban, saffron robe with gold border, ceremonial garland and long swept-back hair, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, presented as a padapuja-style blessing; the kneeling devotee is a person in white.2012-03-30April 01 20122012-04-01March 30 20122012-03-30March 30 20122012-03-30A photograph of a shaved-headed devotee in a white shirt kneeling with his head bowed while a figure in a saffron-orange turban and sleeveless saffron-orange robe places a hand on his head. The blessing figure has long dark hair visible at the back and a bare arm. Behind them a man in white dhoti and kurta holds a camera, another man in yellow clothes stands at left with palms pressed together, and a few seated people in white appear in the background of a hall with white flooring and dark chairs. The blessing figure's head and build are the only cues; the turban and saffron robe are the distinctive ones, and the setting is a discourse hall.2010-07-17November 26 20112011-11-26October 07 20122012-10-07December 18 20112011-12-18March 30 20122012-03-30
