A photograph of two men seated close together in a room with a dark red curtain and a cameraman in a white shirt filming in the background. The man on the right wears an orange and gold cloth draped over bare shoulders, a rudraksha mala, and has hair tied in a knot at the top of his head. He presses his right hand to the forehead of the man on the left, who wears a pale yellow t-shirt with a dark graphic and a rudraksha mala, and whose hands are pressed together. The man on the right holds a red apple in his left hand and has a white bandage on his right forearm. Red velvet cushions sit at the right edge of the frame. No a person candidate is established by appearance cues here, so the figures are described by role only.

A bare-shouldered man in a green and red-bordered garment places his right palm on the forehead of a seated man in a white shirt with a dark tie, who has his hands pressed together in greeting. Behind them a camera on a tripod and several onlookers in white are visible, and a white floor-standing cooling unit stands against a peach wall.

A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange saffron garment with a red bindi, placing his right hand on the forehead of a younger man in a green and brown striped kurta with a lanyard. The younger man has his palms pressed together in a respectful gesture. The setting is an indoor room with a plain pale pink wall. The orange-clad figure has long hair swept back, a red bindi, and a bare right arm. The younger man with a lanyard appears to be a devotee receiving a blessing.

A photograph of a ceremonial moment in front of a red draped backdrop and a gold-trimmed chair. A bare-chested man with swept-back hair, a white tilak on his forehead, and layered rudraksha malas smiles while raising his right hand to touch the forehead of a second man. The second man wears an orange shirt and orange shawl, eyes closed, with gold bangles and a ring, and his hands are open in front of him. The first man holds a small paper card in his left hand, and a red cloth and small items are visible on a table below. The bare-chested figure's distinctive hair, rudraksha malas and ornamentation match the a person cues, so he is described as a person in a blessing role; the other man is a devotee.

A photograph of a man in a rust-orange wrap and a rudraksha mala with a white vibhuti mark on his forehead placing his right hand on the head of a man kneeling before him. The seated man has long dark hair pulled back, a swept-back style and rudraksha beads visible at his neck. The kneeling devotee, in a white collared shirt with a rudraksha mala, sits with palms pressed together in anjali, bowing his head. Gold draped fabric lies in the foreground and a seated figure in white is partly visible behind. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure giving the blessing, with cues including the rudraksha mala, orange ornamented wrap and swept-back hair, while the kneeling man is a devotee receiving darshan.
