A photograph of three people posed against a plain white wall on a light floor. At centre, a figure with long dark hair and a white sacred mark on the forehead sits on a white cushioned seat, wearing a saffron-orange robe and a long garland of pink flower buds, with one hand raised in blessing. On the left, a bespectacled man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands with palms pressed together in namaste. On the right, a woman in a white sari with gold border and a red bindi stands with her hands folded.

A central figure seated on the white-covered platform wears orange robes, a flower garland of pink blossoms and a red forehead mark, with long swept-back dark hair; the figure's appearance is consistent with a person, seated as the honoured guest, though the cues are limited. A woman kneeling at left in a white and red-bordered sari with an orange blouse holds her palms together in anjali. A man kneeling at right wears a white shirt and grey trousers with his hands clasped. Wooden decor and a vase stand at right.2010-02-17Indoor photo of four people posing in a light cream room with a white door behind them. A man in the centre sits in an orange saffron robe with a red and yellow marigold garland, long swept-back hair and a red bindi, raising one hand in greeting; the appearance is consistent with the page's Swamiji label, with long swept hair, saffron robe and floral garland as cues, so this is a probable Swamiji. To the left, a woman in a white sari with gold border and red blouse wears a gold necklace and a red bindi. To the right, a woman in a white sari with gold border and a black beaded necklace sits with hands clasped, and a man in a white shirt with a beaded necklace stands behind the seated figure, smiling.2010-02-15A seated man in long swept-back dark hair wears a red-orange shawl over a sleeveless red top, with a red bindi and white tilak on his forehead, raising his right hand in blessing on a white throne-like seat with a red and blue patterned cushion.
