A photograph of a group of men gathered in a plain, light-walled room with a pale marble floor. On the right, a long-haired figure in a saffron-orange robe with a white flower garland sits and faces the group, with a flower on the floor nearby. Men in white ritual clothes and rudraksha malas kneel or bow, one in the centre pressing palms together in namaste with bare feet. Behind them, a man in a light blue shirt with a mala stands, and a younger man in orange robes stands near a table laden with fruit, bottled water and stacked books.

Indoor room with pale green walls and a barred window, plastic chairs along the wall. A seated woman in a yellow-and-blue sari with a white blouse and a mangalsutra-style necklace kneels with hands pressed together in namaskar, facing a long-haired figure in an orange garment and red top who sits on a white cloth-covered seat with a towel draped beside him. A man in white shirt and white trousers with a rudraksha-style mala stands with palms joined, and a young man in white shirt and khaki trousers with an ID badge stands at left. A plate of fruit sits in the foreground. The seated figure has a small white mark on the forehead. Three people are visible.

A seated figure in saffron-orange robe with long swept-back dark hair and rudraksha-style beads sits on a white ornate chair, smiling and raising a hand in blessing. Before him, a man in white dhoti and shirt bows deeply with palms pressed together, while others in white and orange stand nearby. Books with a white cover are displayed on the table beside him, along with flowers in a vase and a tray of items behind. Swamiji (probable) is shown as the seated figure, identified by the saffron robe, long hair and beads, presiding in a darshan setting.

A photograph of a devotional gathering in an indoor hall with many people. In the left foreground a person with long, swept-back dark hair wears a sleeveless saffron-orange garment with a rudraksha-style bead necklace and extends a hand in blessing toward a line of devotees. Several men in white shirts and light green shirts stand with palms pressed together in anjali, and one man bends forward over a red tray holding fruit. A woman in a yellow top with a long braid stands at the right edge. Crowded background figures are partly visible. The presenter's visible cues are long hair, saffron clothing and bead necklace, so this is a probable identification of Swamiji in the blessing role.

A seated long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes and a gold necklace sits on a red-draped dais at the right, palms joined in anjali toward a seated crowd. Before the dais stands a white tray of apples and flower offerings, with silver vessels on a brass plate in front. In the foreground, several devotees in white dhotis and kurtas, one in a blue shirt, sit with hands pressed in prayer. Behind them, many women in saris and men sit in rows, and a gold-framed altar with multiple deity murtis and oil lamps is visible at the left beside a white curtain. This appears to be a satsang or pada pooja gathering.

A man in white with a folded-hands namaste stands at left, and attendants in white kurtas with orange shawls stand behind. Rudraksha malas and small packets lie on a white cushioned seat, with a white fan and a table in the background.
