Three men in saffron and orange clothing walk together indoors past a table of offerings and a small placard. The man on the left wears an orange turban and a long beard, with an orange shawl over his shoulders. In the centre, a man in a yellow-orange cap, wire-rimmed glasses and a rudraksha mala walks beside him. On the right, a bare-chested man with swept-back hair, a yellow tilak on his forehead and a gold ceremonial necklace gestures with his hand while smiling, wearing an orange dhoti. Behind them stand other people and display cases. Whether the right-hand figure is a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so he is described by role only.

A figure seen from behind on the left wears an orange dhoti and shawl, a gold and red bead necklace, and a dark bun, and clasps hands with a man in orange. Two men in orange and saffron robes with orange head coverings stand behind, one with hands folded. The man on the right in an orange robe and orange cap holds a dark-covered book and leans in. A low table holds small brass bowls, a cup, and printed booklets.

A photo of a formal temple-style reception indoors. A woman with yellow flower garland, sandalwood-painted forehead and gold-bordered maroon sari kneels and extends both hands toward a man in an orange saffron robe and matching orange cloth draped on his shoulders, who wears an orange cap and has a full dark beard. A man in a dark jacket with an orange shawl stands at right with hands joined in greeting. Behind them, shaved-headed priests in orange and brown wraps stand, one with a rudraksha-style necklace, and a white-draped table holds an orange cloth and a gold-toned ceremonial vessel. Warm wood-panelled walls and a small brass lamp complete the setting. Four people are clearly visible.

A photograph inside a tent with a painted forest backdrop and white fabric walls. On the left, a man with long dark hair, a red-brown dhoti and gold-toned beaded necklaces stands extending both hands toward a seated man. A man in an orange robe and orange turban bends forward in the centre-left, while a man in orange with an orange turban and a lanyard stands in the centre-right. Beside him, a bearded man with long hair sits in white clothing and holds a small item. On the right, a man in orange with an orange turban and a lanyard stands smiling. A low table holds steel cups, books and pamphlets, with a printed card and a candle nearby.

A photo inside an orange-draped tent at night. A man in saffron robes with a short beard shakes hands with a person in maroon garments, a maroon turban and heavy gold necklaces and bangles. Behind them, a row of tables holds metal trays with marigold flowers. Another person in peach-coloured robes with a shaved head and a yellow tilak stands at the right edge, holding a phone. Strings of lights and an orange-and-white canopy fill the background, with several more people in saffron and peach clothing behind.
