Indoor photo in a green-walled room with gold-patterned curtains. A man with long dark hair, wearing an orange saffron cloth wrap, sits on a white-draped sofa with a gold ceremonial staff beside him and fruit at the bottom edge. He places his hand on the head of a man in a white kurta who bows with palms pressed together. Behind them, several women stand in a row: one in a white sari with a red-and-gold border and a lanyard badge, another in a beige sari with red border and a badge, and others in white and cream saris with beaded necklaces. Their blessing-like gesture suggests a darshan exchange.

A photograph of a living room visit. A smiling figure in an orange saffron robe and a red-and-white flower garland sits on a white-draped armchair, holding out red apples to a man bending forward with palms pressed together in greeting. The man wears a white shirt, grey trousers and glasses, and a red shawl hangs over his arm. Behind them a woman in white and a second man in white stand near a side table holding a silver tray of pineapple, apples and oranges, beside a small brass horse figurine. A red sofa and sheer curtains frame the room. On the right edge a woman in a floral sari is partly visible.

Visible flower garland and fruit offerings suggest a devotional greeting.
