A photograph of a bare-chested man in orange ochre cloth with a long rudraksha and silver bead mala and a gold pendant necklace, seated on a red cushion. He has hair tied in a bun, a white vertical tilak on his forehead, and is smiling as he places his right hand on the head of a boy. The boy, in a turquoise t-shirt with a rudraksha mala, has his palms pressed together in namaste and eyes lowered. Behind them a woman in an orange saree and another person in blue stand in a plain room. The man has distinctive long rudraksha and gold adornments and an orange wrap, consistent with the page reference to a person, so this is a probable identification of the seated man, who is blessing the boy.2012-10-11October 08 20122012-10-08December 16 20132013-12-16A photograph of a bare-chested man in an orange-saffron shawl with a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace, his hair tied in a bun, reaching out to touch the forehead of a young boy in a grey and red football-print t-shirt. Two girls stand behind, one in a red top, and a woman in a red garment is partly visible. The setting is a plain white room. The man has distinctive saffron clothing and rudraksha beads, so he is a person appearance-based candidate, shown here blessing a child during an ashram gathering.2012-10-11A photograph of a seated man in an orange-saffron robe with a sleeveless bare-shouldered drape and layered rudraksha malas and gold ornaments, wearing a white vertical tilak and red bindi on his forehead and gold-beaded armlets. He rests his right hand on the head of a young boy in a navy t-shirt standing before him, a ritual blessing gesture. Behind him a golden throne with red upholstery; another figure in orange robes and an orange head covering stands behind, raising a hand. Red cushions and a tray of flower petals sit at the lower left, and a white-clad attendant is partly visible at the far left. Plain white wall and a wall vent in the background.2012-10-16A seated man in a rust-brown dhoti-style garment with a gold border rests his right hand on the forehead of a shaven-headed boy in an orange sleeveless robe. The seated man, with long hair tied back, rudraksha mala beads and white vibhuti marks, smiles warmly. The boy wears a rudraksha mala, bangle and a white vibhuti mark, eyes closed, palms together in a respectful gesture. Gold ceremonial objects and a dark speaker stand in the background. This appears to be a blessing moment, with the seated man's appearance matching the page's Swamiji cues of long hair, rudraksha beads and a ceremonial setting (probable).2013-12-08December 08 20132013-12-08March 03 20132013-03-03December 25 20112011-12-25December 10 20112011-12-10A photograph of a seated man in a rust-orange robe with a gold border and a long rudraksha mala, with white vibhuti marks and a red bindi on his forehead, placing his right hand on the forehead of a young boy in a white t-shirt who has his eyes closed and hands raised. A smiling woman in white with a rudraksha mala watches from behind the boy. The setting is an indoor hall with pale wall panels and a bright screen behind them. Swamiji (probable): the seated man in the orange robe shows long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and ornate ceremonial clothing, and is shown blessing the boy.2013-12-13February 25 20132013-02-25
