A seated figure in an orange saffron robe wears a long pink-and-white flower garland and rudraksha-style beads, with long swept-back dark hair, and smiles while resting a hand on the head of a man bowing forward at his feet. The bowing man wears a white shirt. A person in white stands at the left beside a red tray holding red apples, garlands and beads, and a partially visible person in a pink patterned shawl is at the right edge. The room has cream walls, a white couch, a bamboo blind and a vase with decorative branches. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha beads are the qualifying cues, shown receiving a devotee's obeisance.

He has a red tilak on his forehead and gestures with his right hand while speaking. In front of him, a man in a white shirt and dark trousers leans forward, extending his hand and holding an orange cloth. A second man in orange stands partly visible behind the seat at left. The orange robed figure is a person by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala, seated in an honoured position.2010-07-13April 19 20122012-04-19A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha mala sits on a zebra-striped armchair with long dark hair, smiling, while a man in white kneeling clothes attends to him near his feet. Behind them hang leopard-print drapes, a golden trident stands upright, and a drum rests against the wall beside white and red striped fabric. A man in blue sits in the background on a patterned floor covering. The seated figure is an appearance-based a person candidate, identifiable by long swept hair, saffron robes and rudraksha beads, while the kneeling attendant wears plain white robes and a red-beaded necklace. Three people are visible in the frame.2008-06-27A seated man in an orange saffron robe with long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead receives a multi-coloured garland of white jasmine, red and yellow flowers, being placed around his neck by a woman. A man in a white shirt kneels before him, and a small girl in a white dress stands at right, reaching toward the garland. On the left, men in white dhotis and shirts stand with hands pressed together in namaste, one holding a red box. Behind them a shrine with framed pictures, a deity image and hanging garlands is visible, along with a butterfly-patterned glass panel.
