A person in an orange saffron garment and a bare shoulder, hair in a bun, wearing copper-coloured bangles, stands behind a older man in glasses and a white short-sleeved shirt, placing a hand on his forehead. The man stands with hands together near his waist. Behind them a seated man in white with a rudraksha mala and a shaved-head priest in orange stand near; to the right a woman in a white sari with a grey blouse watches. The swami figure's identity is only an appearance-based guess, so this is a probable depiction of a blessing scene with the orange-clad person giving a forehead blessing to a devotee.2012-04-06April 06 20122012-04-06A seated man in an orange saffron shawl and orange dhoti, wearing a gold ceremonial necklace and a red bindi, reaches to press both hands onto the head of a standing man in a white shirt. The seated man has long dark hair swept back. The recipient has his hands raised in anjali near his face. Behind them is a golden lamp with a lit flame, a gold throne with red cushions decorated with a garland of red and orange flowers, and an ornate carved stone wall panel. The scene reads as a blessing or padapuja-style giving of darshan.2011-09-18July 07 20092009-07-07August 01 20142014-08-01January 08 20122012-01-08A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a gold border sits on a red velvet throne decorated with garlands of pink, yellow and purple flowers. He wears a long rudraksha mala, a silver bangle and a red bindi, and holds a folded paper. A man in a white shirt with his back to the camera raises his hands in front of him, facing the seated figure. Small heaps of offerings lie on the red platform at lower right. Appearance-based label: a person, seated on the flower-decorated throne with saffron robes and rudraksha mala as the honored figure in the scene.2011-11-30
