Photograph of an arrival outside a building with a white car behind. A man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing a rust-orange saffron wrap and a thick red and white flower garland, smiles and raises a hand in greeting. Around him, several men in saffron-orange robes with rudraksha malas and forehead markings stand near, while a man in a striped red and white shirt and jeans stands at left and a man in grey shirt holds an orange-tipped pole at right. The central figure matches the page's Swamiji (probable) by his long hair, saffron wrap and garland.

A photograph of a smiling person standing in the centre of a doorway at a temple entrance, wearing a maroon turban with a red tilak on the forehead, a maroon and gold robe, a thick white and yellow flower garland with pink petals, gold bangles, and a gold pendant. Two men flank the central figure in orange shawls: the man on the left wears a dark green kurta and glasses, and the man on the right wears a white shirt and black trousers with glasses. A bald man in a dark maroon shawl stands behind, a man at the far right wears a white shirt with an orange shawl and a bearded older man in white stands beside him. A signboard in Gujarati script is mounted on the wall at the top right. Pale marble panels and a wooden door frame surround them. Several people are visible in the background. Swamiji (probable) is the central figure, identifiable by the turban, the flower garland, and the maroon and gold robe.
