A photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes on a red-cushioned gilded throne inside a temple shrine. He wears a long garland of white and pink flowers and a red garland, and has a loose orange shawl over his shoulders, with his arms spread along the armrests. Behind him stands a gilded deity murti with a golden crown, flanked by a red and gold arched backdrop, draped with a yellow and orange flower garland. In front, a brass kalasha and a small wooden offering stand with fruit sit on an orange cloth. Brass oil lamps line the shrine walls and a red curtain hangs at right.

A seated man in orange robes sits on a red and gold throne-like chair before a gilded shrine. He wears long dark hair, a red bindi, and layered garlands of red, white and pink flowers, and he smiles with his arms spread along the armrests. Behind him, a gilded deity murti pair with a crowned figure and a trident-like emblem stands on a purple cloth above a shiva lingam draped with yellow and red marigold garlands. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, and an orange-draped table holds a wooden box, fruit and a water bottle. a person: long hair, orange robes and ornate garlands match the page's identification, but identification rests on the page rather than clear appearance cues, so the in-person value is set to unsure.

A seated man in an orange-saffron robe and a rudraksha mala sits in a large orange upholstered armchair before a golden shrine. Behind him are two large deity murtis, one wearing an orange turban and holding a trident, the other in a teal and gold sari, both garlanded with yellow and red marigold malas. A golden peetha or throne-like structure with a kalasha-style finial stands between them, flanked by tall brass oil lamps (lamps, not lit flames described). A small white statue in orange and a small teal-clad figurine sit nearby. The man has his hands folded in his lap and his bare feet rest on an orange cushioned footstool. A white wooden pedestal stands at the left edge.

A man with long swept-back dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne with red velvet cushions, wearing orange saffron robes and a white and red flower garland, with a red tilak on his forehead and hands folded in his lap. Behind him stands a gilded arched shrine framing a deity murti with a crown, holding a trident and drum, and a consort figure in red and gold; red curtains and brass lamps surround the arch. A small gilded footstool sits before the throne with a saffron cloth. Swamiji (probable): the seated man shows long swept-back hair, saffron robes and a flower garland, the throne is ornate, and the page indicates his presence.

Three seated sadhus in saffron and orange robes sit before an ornate golden throne-shrine decorated with lion carvings and kalasha-topped gold panels. In the centre, a figure in a red-orange turban and layered gold-bead necklace sits on a golden chair; his appearance is uncertain, so he is only a candidate for a person. On the left, a sadhu with bare shoulder-length grey-black hair and a tilak sits with hands folded. On the right, a bearded sadhu with grey beard, rudraksha mala and orange robe speaks into a microphone on a stand. Behind them stand deity murtis of Shiva with trident and Parvati, adorned with red and white garlands, plus two attendant figures in garlands. Brass oil lamps line the platform, and a rug covers the floor.
