April 17 20182018-04-17A seated man in an orange-red turban with a crescent-moon ornament and rudraksha beads, wearing a white and orange marigold garland, places his right hand on the head of a kneeling man in a dark sleeveless top with palms pressed together in namaste. A brass deity statue stands in the background beside a floor fan, and a silver ritual object is at the left edge. The kneeling man receives blessing. Possible a person cues: orange turban, rudraksha mala and ornate ceremonial ornaments, though identity is uncertain.2018-04-17April 17 20182018-04-17July 21 20152015-07-21A seated man in an orange-red turban and saffron-orange robe, draped with a thick white flower garland, places his right hand on the head of a kneeling man in a grey collared shirt with a wristwatch and hands joined in namaskar. The seated man smiles with eyes closed. Behind them are gold-coloured ornate panels, a red carpet, a white wall-mounted air conditioner and a standing fan. A second person in white clothes with a rudraksha mala is partly visible at the right edge. The appearance of the seated man is consistent with a person, with an orange turban, orange robes and a flower garland, but the photo does not establish this; he is shown giving a blessing to a devotee in a blessing or satsang setting.2015-09-27A seated man in an orange-brown turban with a crescent ornament and orange-brown robes sits on a red velvet throne with an ornate gold carved backrest, wearing a multicolour marigold garland, gold armbands and a rudraksha-style necklace. He places his hand on the head of a young boy in a white checked shirt who stands before him, while a second attendant with yellow tilak on his forehead, long hair and white dhoti stands to the left. Rose petals lie on the throne and a small yellow paper is held in the seated man's hand. Potted plants and a camera on a tripod are visible in the background.2016-06-29A seated figure in an orange-red turban, red and blue coral-style beaded necklace, gold earrings and a saffron-and-yellow shawl over bare shoulders blesses a devotee by placing a hand on his head. The devotee, wearing a white-banded head covering and a striped light shirt, bends forward with palms joined in reverence. Behind them are other people in saffron and white, and a golden deity murti with a red cushioned seat in the foreground. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure in the turban, beaded necklace and saffron shawl is receiving darshan as the blessing giver, appearing to be a sannyasi-style spiritual leader.2015-08-09April 04 20142014-04-04April 30 20182018-04-30 +1 copiesApril 04 20182018-04-04Night-time photograph of a seated man in a red-orange turban, bare-chested with an orange and gold shawl, wearing a red and turquoise beaded garland and gold necklace, placing his palm on the head of a bowed man in a light green shirt with hands folded in greeting. Behind them a bald man with white tilak marks wears an orange dhoti, and a man in white with a badge stands nearby; a golden vessel and red cushioned seat are visible. Appearance-based cues on the seated figure (turban, shawl, ornate garland) are consistent with Swamiji (probable), seated in a blessing gesture.2015-08-09A photograph of a seated man in a brown turban decorated with a silver brooch and a crown of pink and green leaves, wearing long layered garlands of red roses, white jasmine and yellow marigolds. He rests one hand on the bald head of a devotee in a grey shirt who bows before him. The seated man sits on a red cushioned throne with ornate gold carving, in front of a deep red curtain and a gold pole. A second man with a beard and a sacred thread stands at left, and a partially visible person appears at the lower right. The scene appears to be a blessing given to a devotee during an event.2016-10-02
