A seated man in orange saffron robes and a red sleeveless undershirt sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with eyes closed and palms pressed together in prayer. He wears a red-and-blue beaded garland and rudraksha beads, with a red bindi on his forehead. In front of him, a devotee in white kneels and washes his bare feet from a silver tray scattered with red petals and offerings. A wooden tray with apples and sweets sits beside the throne, with yellow curtains behind. The image is a photograph. Appearance-based label: a person, seated in ritual padapuja with his feet being worshipped.

A man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a white and orange flower garland around his neck, hands pressed together in namaste with eyes closed. A woman in white and yellow sari kneels to his right, also with palms joined and gold bangles on her wrists. In the foreground, silver plates holding offerings and a pile of gold-coloured items sit on the floor, with partially visible seated devotees at the lower left and bottom edge. Behind them are red-and-white painted pillars, an orange curtain and a tray of bananas and flowers. The seated man is an appearance-based probable Swamiji: long swept-back hair, saffron robes and a garland, seated on a throne with devotees honouring him.

A photograph of a seated figure in an orange saffron robe with long dark hair and a red bindi, hands pressed together in anjali mudra at chest level with eyes closed. A gold chain of beads hangs around the neck, and a microphone stand is positioned at the side. He sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions and a red footrest, in front of a red and white draped backdrop with floral garlands. This appears to be a satsang or public talk setting.

A figure in a saffron-orange sleeveless robe sits on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions, hands pressed together in namaskar with eyes lowered. A long white and red flower garland hangs around the neck, and the hair is long and swept back in a braid. A golden lion sculpture rests on the pedestal in front, with a golden kalasha-style vessel and a tray of fruit nearby, a small electric fan behind, and a seated person partly visible at the lower edge.

A seated man in an orange-saffron dhoti-style wrap and sleeveless orange garment sits with palms pressed together in anjali mudra and eyes closed, on an ornate gold throne with red zebra-patterned cushions and a gold footstool. He has long dark hair swept back, a white sandalwood mark and red kumkum bindi on his forehead. Behind him a green backdrop shows a pink ornamental lotus-like motif, and bananas or fruit sit on a side table at right. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a throne posture consistent with the page's record of his talk.

A man seated on an ornate gilded throne with red zebra-striped cushions against a bright green backdrop, hands pressed together in anjali mudra with eyes closed. He wears a sleeveless saffron-orange wrap with a draped shawl, bare feet resting on a small orange mat, and a red bindi with white forehead markings, his long dark hair swept back. A pink ornamental motif hangs above, with bowls of bananas on side tables. The page identifies this as a person, but appearance cues are only partly distinctive (long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, throne), so the identification is uncertain.

A man seated on the throne wears an orange robe and a multicoloured flower garland, with a red tilak on his forehead, and presses his palms together in namaste with eyes closed. In front, a man with long dark hair in an orange robe holds a lit oil lamp, and a man in a white shirt and white dhoti sits with palms joined. A flower-filled plate and fruit lie nearby. Probable Swamiji is seated on the throne with long hair, orange robes and a garland, performing a padapuja-style reverence.
