A photograph taken at a doorway of a home, showing a seated figure in orange-saffron robes with rudraksha mala beads and a pendant, hands pressed together in prayer, with white paste markings on the forehead and arms. Behind him stand three people: a man in a light blue shirt and white dhoti, a woman in a green and maroon sari with gold bangles and folded hands, and an older man in a cream kurta and white dhoti with hands raised in prayer. Floor covered with flower petals and offerings. Appearance-based label: a person for the seated figure in saffron with rudraksha malas and ornate pendant; he is performing prayer. Glass sliding door and a camera date stamp appear on the right.

A photograph taken at an open sliding doorway shows a seated man in an orange saffron robe with a white tripundra mark on his forehead and rudraksha mala necklaces, reading from an open book over a small fire pit with flames and offerings beside him. Behind him, three people stand in the doorway with hands folded in prayer: a young man in a light blue shirt and white dhoti, a woman in a dark green sari with a red border and gold bangles, and an older man in a cream shirt and white dhoti. Brass plates with fruit and a coconut sit on the floor nearby. The man in orange has distinctive long hair, mala necklaces and saffron clothing, matching the page's Swamiji cues, so he is labelled a probable identification.

A photograph of a living room at a home setting for a pada puja gathering. A seated figure in an orange saffron robe with an orange turban and a red-and-white flower garland sits on a red-draped chair, reading from a small book. Two women sit on the floor: one in a grey-green top with a patterned shawl, and one in a blue sari with a gold border. A bearded man in a brown shawl sits cross-legged on the right. A standing man in a light blue button-up shirt stands behind the chair. A framed portrait of a woman in a red sari hangs on the wall, a potted plant stands nearby, and a small table holds bowls and a yellow fruit. Copyright text is in the lower right corner.

Photo of a seated man in saffron-orange robes with a bare shoulder, wearing layered beaded orange-gold necklaces and an armlet, holding a folded paper and reading it. Before him on a red cloth sits a tray of sweets and a gold vessel. Two men in white shirts or white dhotis with raised hands and a seated woman in an orange sari kneel nearby on a red mat, and a bald man in a white dhoti sits at right. The wall shows a tree mural and a radiator. The seated robed man is an appearance-based a person by his saffron robes, long-hair bun and ornate beads, with role of a teacher receiving and reading a paper.

A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange sleeveless top and a rudraksha mala stands at right with palms pressed together in prayer before a small table holding a brass tray with fruit and offerings. A pink cushioned seat with gold trim sits at the far right beside a green banana plant. In the foreground, a woman with a red bindi and a bald man in glasses are seated, and a bald man in a white dhoti kneels in the doorway behind them, with other seated devotees in the background. The walls are terracotta-coloured and an incense haze fills the inner room. Swamiji (probable): the standing man in orange with long swept-back hair and rudraksha mala is the central figure.

A photograph of a padapuja in a carpeted room with a light wall and a wooden armchair upholstered in red. A seated man in orange robes and an orange turban, with a white and red flower garland around his neck, presses his palms together in prayer while his bare feet rest on a copper tray. A woman in a white sari with a red border kneels beside him holding a brass plate of white and pink flowers and washes his feet. A young woman in a pink silk sari with a gold border and a hair ornament kneels in the foreground, and a man in a blue checked shirt sits with his head bowed at the lower left. Two people are visible at the right edge. The orange-robed figure in the chair is an appearance-based candidate for a person, shown with a turban, orange robes and a garland, but the appearance is uncertain.

A seated man in an orange-red garment with a bright orange flower garland, gold armbands and bangles, receives a lit oil lamp (aarti) from a bare-chested man in white dhoti with rudraksha mala. A young monk in saffron robe holds a silver plate, a woman in red and orange sari sits with hands folded, and an older man in white stands behind. Padapuja and house visit atmosphere; a silver pole stands beside the seated figure.
