A seated figure in a red-orange turban and red-orange robe with a leopard-print cloth at the waist, wearing a long white and orange flower garland and a rudraksha mala across the chest, holds up a sheet of paper while a man in a brown patterned shirt kneels before them holding a yellow object. Behind them a woman in a red-orange sari with gold border and rudraksha mala stands beside a golden ornament, and two women in white and blue stand at the right near a white air conditioning unit. Red drapes hang in the background. Appearance-based cues include the turban, rudraksha and garland, but the candidate's identity is uncertain.

A seated figure in a red-orange turban with a gold ornament and a large rudraksha mala with a gold necklace sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne, extending a hand and holding a stack of white cards. Beside him, an elderly man with grey hair and a beard, wearing an orange robe and shawl, bows forward with his hands near the throne's gold lion-head armrest. Behind them is a large banner portrait of a smiling woman in a red turban and gold-trimmed clothing. A second orange-robed man stands at the upper left, hands pressed together in greeting. The figure on the throne is an appearance-based candidate and the visible cues are a red turban with a gold crest, rudraksha beads and a gold necklace, so he is labelled a person in the sense of a probable candidate; the page does not confirm his presence.

Indoors, a man with a shaved head and white tripundra markings sits on a red upholstered seat, wearing a rust-red robe, a garland of white flowers with blue and yellow ribbons, and a long rudraksha mala across his chest. He smiles and reaches toward a man in a bright orange polo shirt kneeling before him, who holds a small red object in his hands. Behind them, a woman in an orange sari with a long rudraksha mala and a white forehead mark watches, with another woman and a man in orange robes standing nearby against a deep red curtain. Four people are visible in the scene.

A seated figure in an orange-red turban and yellow-and-white flower garland, holding a folded paper, sits on a raised golden seat inside a red-draped tent, with a golden staff beside them. Next to them, a bald man with yellow tilak and a rudraksha mala in an orange-and-cream robe stands, while a man with a tilak sits cross-legged in similar orange clothing and a woman in white with a long braid and beaded mala stands holding a paper. On the right, a kneeling older man in white with an orange shawl sits with folded hands before a woman in white and a woman in a cream sari with a tilak and lanyard. Golden carved columns and red fabric form the backdrop. Note: the seated figure's identity is not established from appearance.

A seated figure in a deep red-orange robe and matching turban, with long beaded necklaces and rudraksha malas, sits on a gold-and-yellow throne in an ornate temple-style hall. Behind him hangs a large garland of yellow, orange and green flowers, and a gilded lamp stand is visible at left. An elderly woman in a cream sari, wearing gold bangles and glasses, kneels and offers a white cloth to the seated figure's extended hand. Beside her, a bald man in white with a yellow shawl and a rudraksha mala stands with hands folded, and a younger woman sits at the right near gold ritual vessels. A man in white stands at far left near an air conditioner, and a further person is partly visible behind the throne. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with Swamiji (probable), with the red turban, long beaded necklaces and rudraksha malas as cues, receiving a devotee in a blessing-type exchange.
