Decorated cloth and a patterned pillar are visible in the background.

Indoor hall scene where a man in an orange saffron dhoti-wrap and rudraksha bracelets, with a red bindi and a long gold necklace, presses his palm onto the forehead of a man in a white shirt who bows his head. A bald man in orange robes and glasses stands at right, and several other men in white and cream clothes crowd around. Behind them a projection screen and wooden fixtures are visible. The orange-clad figure has distinctive long swept-back hair and ornate gold adornments, consistent with a person candidate performing a blessing, though the face is not clearly distinct enough to confirm. Several people stand in the background.

Indoor event photograph in a hall with many people in the background. In the foreground, a man in a light blue shirt and glasses kneels with his head bowed while a figure in a bright orange turban and sleeveless orange robe places a hand on his head and holds his hands. Beside them stands an older man with glasses, a red tilak mark and an orange stole over white clothes. To the left, two men in white shirts stand with hands folded, one wearing a rudraksha mala. The figure in orange has long curly dark hair and appears to be giving a blessing.

A photograph of devotees gathered indoors in a white-walled hall. In the foreground, a woman in a white sari with small floral print and orange-gold border stands with palms pressed together in namaste, her eyes closed and face tearful. Beside her, a man in white kurta with a rudraksha mala and a blue lanyard badge holds his hands in anjali, smiling toward a seated figure. That seated figure, viewed from behind, wears an orange saffron robe and has long dark hair, and sits with a pink cloth and a small offering nearby. Behind them, other people in white clothing, some with rudraksha malas, stand and watch; a woman in a yellow-bordered white sari appears at the right. A white cloth hangs on the wall behind the group.

A photograph taken indoors at night of a seated man in an orange sleeveless top and orange-red cloth, with long dark swept-back hair, placing his hands on the head of a woman with long brown hair wearing a white short-sleeved top and a red-orange beaded cord. Another person in white stands behind her, supporting her shoulder. Behind them a man in a white shirt stands beside a younger man in orange, with other people in white and orange in the background. On the right, a tray holds fruit, including apples, on a red patterned cloth, beside a gold-framed edge. The orange-clad seated figure has distinctive long swept-back hair and orange clothing, a person cue, shown performing a blessing on a devotee.

A photograph of a seated figure in an orange sleeveless robe with long, swept-back dark hair laughing as both hands rest on the head of a bald man in white shirt and trousers, who has his palms pressed together in namaste. A woman in a green floral sari with a long braid kneels beside him with her hands folded in prayer. Behind them, devotees in white and yellow-trimmed clothing stand in a tent-like hall with striped decorative pillars. The orange-robed figure's cues are distinctive, but the page does not state a person is present, so the identity is uncertain and the figure is described by role only as a seated orange-robed teacher giving a blessing.

A photograph of a satsang-style blessing. A man with long dark hair, wearing a white dhoti-style garment with a gold border, red and turquoise beaded malas, and a gold chain, smiles while pressing his hand on the forehead of a bald man in a white hooded sweatshirt who has his palms pressed together in namaste. Behind them, a man in white with rudraksha beads and a lanyard watches, and a man in orange robes holds a silver tray with gold items at right. Two other onlookers stand at left and centre, one in a grey jacket with hands folded. A pink wall and a striped cloth hang in the background.

A photograph of a devotional blessing in a white-walled hall with orange and gold floor mats. A seated figure in a sleeveless saffron-orange robe with long curly dark hair holds a folded handwritten sheet while facing a kneeling man in white shirt and white dhoti with hands pressed together in prayer. A standing man in white clothes and an orange scarf rests his hand on the kneeling man's head. Beside them a woman in a red floral blouse kneels with her head bowed, and a woman in white with a gold border stands at left. A man in white with hands folded in namaste stands in the background, and another robed figure in orange appears at right near a wooden box of items. The seated robed figure's identity is not established by visible cues beyond clothing, so the a person field is unsure.
