A photograph of two men in a seated exchange indoors. On the left, a smiling man in a white kurta wears a rudraksha mala and raises both palms outward toward the other man. On the right, a bare-chested man with hair in a topknot wears an orange-saffron shawl with a gold border and reads a small white card held in both hands. Behind them a man in orange robes sits, a tripod and white cabinet are visible, and a red curtain hangs in the background. The scene resembles a satsang or blessing exchange.

A photograph of an indoor ashram hall with a corrugated metal roof and orange-painted walls. A smiling man in white clothes and a long rudraksha mala stands at the centre, holding a bundle of white cloth. Facing him, a long-haired figure in a saffron-orange garment wears a dark rudraksha mala and extends his hands toward the man's hands. To the right, a man in orange robes and layered gold necklaces stands near a wooden tray holding small brass items. On the left, several men in white garments and identity lanyards stand watching, and a few more people are visible in the background. The long-haired figure with orange clothes and rudraksha malas is a probable candidate for Swamiji, though his appearance is only partly visible, so identification is uncertain.

The man on the left is bald with a red tilak on his forehead, wearing white ritual clothing, an orange shawl over one shoulder and a rudraksha mala. He looks down at a small white object, possibly a card, held near his chest. The man on the right has long, swept-back black hair and wears a sleeveless saffron-orange garment with an ornate gold necklace. He points at a white object he holds with his other hand, smiling.

A photograph of a blessing moment in a temple-like hall. A man in a white shirt with a white forehead mark kneels with his head bowed, while a long-haired figure in an orange saffron robe and a rudraksha mala places one hand on his head and holds a sheet of paper in the other. The robed figure wears a red kumkum mark on the forehead and a long rudraksha mala. Behind them, a few devotees stand in white and light clothing, some with white forehead marks, and orange and red decorative pillars are visible.

On the left, a man in a white kurta with a rudraksha mala raises both open palms in an explaining gesture, his gaze directed toward the other man. On the right, a man with hair tied in a topknot and wearing an orange-saffron shawl with gold border holds a small white card and looks down at it. A third man in orange clothing sits blurred in the background, and a tripod stands behind them. The setting appears to be a hall with red drapery.

Facing him, an older man with grey hair and a white short-sleeved shirt grips his hand and wrist, with gold bracelets and a watch visible. Behind them a shaved-headed man in orange robes and a long rudraksha mala stands watching, with a small red mark on his forehead. A brass lamp shaped with a bird finial stands at the left edge.
