A white marble statue of a seated guru sits on a red wooden throne with cushions, raising one hand in blessing. The figure wears an orange saffron robe with maroon borders and an orange turban with a red mark on the forehead. In front, a low wooden stool holds a pair of black slippers with orange straps and a white frangipani flower, set on a fluffy peach mat over a red and gold floral carpet. Yellow and pink flower arrangements flank the throne, and a woven palm-leaf wall forms the backdrop.

A white statue of a seated guru in an orange saffron turban and orange shawl with gold border, wearing a rudraksha mala, right hand raised in blessing, seated on a red throne with red patterned cushions. The thatched woven bamboo walls and roof enclose a small shrine-like pavilion, with red curtains by a window and a red-draped table with a brass object at left. No physical people are visible; the figure is a statue.

A photograph taken through glass of a seated figure on a gold-trimmed throne with a gilded arched backdrop. The seated figure wears an orange-red robe and a matching orange-red head covering, with a dark rudraksha mala draped over the chest, and raises one hand in blessing. A second figure in orange-red cloth sits in front of the throne, and the reflections of ceiling lights and a metal-framed hall are visible on the glass. Faint figures stand in the background at right. The seated figure is an image or statue rather than a live person, and its identity is not established by the scene itself.

A white marble statue of a long-haired figure in an orange and maroon turban with a red bindi on the forehead, wearing an orange and maroon garment, with one hand raised in a blessing gesture. The statue sits in front of a red patterned cushioned backdrop framed by a red arch, with a woven bamboo ceiling above. This is a statue, not a living person, so the statue is shown as a depiction rather than in person.

A thatched-roof hall with a dark woven wall and a red-tiled floor holds a seated figure on a red wooden throne with cushioned back. The seated figure wears an orange robe and a matching orange head covering and appears to be a statue or effigy, not a living person. A patterned rug lies before the throne with a low wooden table holding offerings, and flower vases stand beside the throne. Above hang strings of white beads, a large red paper lantern, and yellow, orange and purple cloth banners on the left and right.
