A photograph of an exchange at a seated ceremonial setting. An older man with short white hair, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and a dark rudraksha mala, stands facing right and smiles while accepting a folded paper from a younger man seated on a gilded golden throne with red upholstery. The seated man wears an orange robe and a long orange shawl, and has long dark hair tied back. Behind them, other people in orange robes and white clothing stand near a white curtain, and a gold ornamental decoration and fruit sit in the foreground.

A photograph of a long-haired man in saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala seated on an ornate gilded throne with peacock-carved armrests before deep red velvet drapery. He smiles broadly while clasping the hands of an older man with short white hair, white kurta and a rudraksha mala, who bows forward and receives him. In the background a younger man in white and saffron sits to the left, and a small tray with sweets rests near the bottom of the frame. The seated man's distinctive long hair, saffron clothing, mala and gold throne match the Swamiji cues, so he is presented as a probable Swamiji in an act of blessing.

A photograph of a seated figure with long dark hair wearing a flowing saffron-orange robe, leaning forward and smiling as he takes the hands of an older man in a white shirt with a rudraksha-style bead necklace. A woman in a pale pink sari with a dark braid sits on the left, holding a red-wrapped item and looking toward him. Behind them a man in an orange robe with a mala stands with palms pressed together near a saffron-draped seat. Red-wrapped gift boxes of apples sit in the foreground, and a green carpet, white chairs and an audience sit under a wooden lattice ceiling. Flowers and greenery frame the right edge. The figure in saffron has distinctive long swept-back hair and saffron robes, consistent with the page's a person reference, though the identification is appearance-based.

A night-time outdoor event photograph. On the left, a smiling man with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi wears an orange saffron shawl over a leopard-print cloth and a gold-bead necklace, seated on a low platform behind a tray of red apples and a bead garland. On the right, a smiling man in orange robes with a maroon sash, rudraksha mala and white vibhuti on his forehead and eyeglasses reaches out to clasp the seated man's hand. Behind them, a crowd of women in white saris with yellow borders stands in rows under string lights, with a pink draped backdrop and a tall decorated pillar at the edge.

Night outdoor event photograph. A seated figure with long dark hair, wearing an orange sleeveless top and a leopard-print shawl, receives a paper gift bag tied with string from a man in an orange kurta on the right. Fruit (apples) and wrapped sweets sit on a tray in the foreground. Behind them, a man in a yellow shirt and a white-clad elderly man with a white vibhuti forehead mark watch, and rows of women in white saris with yellow and red shawls stand with folded hands. A tall painted pillar and lights appear in the background. Visible physical people: about 20-30 standing and seated in the crowd and on stage.

A seated figure in an orange-brown saffron garment and a long beaded pale necklace sits on a golden throne with a white vibhuti mark on the forehead, smiling as a man in a light green shirt with a red lanyard kneels before him with palms pressed together in anjali. Behind them, several standing men in white dhotis with gold borders and casual shirts stand with hands folded. A red box filled with small packets and a purple cloth sit on a table beside the throne. The seated figure's appearance matches the appearance-based candidate for a person, with saffron clothing, a crown-like hairstyle and ornate necklace cues, but identity is uncertain from appearance alone.

A seated man in an orange sleeveless robe and dark rudraksha mala necklaces, with long swept-back dark hair, sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne and smiles while clasping hands with an older man in a beige short-sleeved shirt who bows in greeting. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha malas, seated on a throne. To the left, two men in white dhoti-style clothing with sacred markings stand with hands folded in namaste. Behind them is a dark stone shrine with a carved deity murti and a stone pillar, with red curtains and yellow flowers in the background.
