A courtyard garden of a modern white building with bamboo, potted plants, palm trees and a lily-pad pond in the foreground. Three saffron-robed sannyasis walk along a stone path past a small arched trellis. The foremost figure in long orange robes and a shawl, with long dark hair, walks barefoot near the pond, while a second orange-clad figure and a third follow behind on the green lawn. Another person in white stands near the building.

Outdoor garden scene at a grassy lawn with a stone paved path and white floral kolam rangoli on the stones. A man with long dark hair, wearing an orange saffron robe and a red and white garland, a red bindi on his forehead, walks barefoot on the path. Beside him a woman in a yellow and orange sari with a pink shawl carries a brass plate holding a brass kalasha-style pot decorated with red flowers and greenery. Trees, potted plants and a white wall stand behind; a boy in white and a man in jeans appear at the edges.

Outdoor landscape photograph of a calm lake or pond bordered by a red brick wall and a railing. In the foreground, terracotta pots hold green plants and red-leafed shrubs along a walkway. Dense green vines and trees line the left side, with palms and a wooded horizon beyond. Overcast sky with clouds and patches of blue. No people are visible, and no ritual, deity or a person depiction appears in the scene.

A photograph of an empty outdoor garden path under shady trees. Reddish-brown earth lines a sandy walkway edged with curved white concrete borders. Leafy branches and scattered fallen green leaves lie on the ground, and a thick trunk with hanging aerial roots stands at left. A black hose coils around a tree base at right, and a grey pole and red wall are visible in the background. No people, statues or portraits are visible.

Elevated view of a landscaped garden at an ashram-style complex with a stone wall and thatched roof edge at left. A paved stepping-stone path runs through green lawns lined with trimmed hedges, flowering plants and a wooden bench. In the foreground, a man in an orange robe and a man in a white shirt with a saffron shawl stand on a staircase railing, with two men in light shirts beside them, viewed from behind. Further along the path, a group of people in white and dark clothing stands on the lawn near a figure in white.

Outdoor photo of a garden courtyard beside a white two-storey building with palm trees and bamboo. In the foreground a barefoot man with long dark hair wears a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl, walking across a stone path over a small lily pond. Beside him a second person in orange robes walks, and behind them a man in a white shirt and light trousers and another person in dark clothing move toward the house. A wooden bench sits near potted plants, and a small green arch with climbing vines frames the lawn. A rangoli-style white design marks the pathway. Identification of the saffron-robed figure as Swamiji is probable from the long hair and saffron dress, though this is appearance-based only.

A photograph of a tree-lined garden path in an ashram campus on a bright day. A paved stone walkway runs through green lawns with low path lights. Two people in saffron-red robes walk along the path: one in a long red robe and one in a red sari-style garment, with others in blue and white clothing further back. Tall trees and a white colonnaded building with a terrace stand behind the lawn, and statues stand on the grassy slope to the right.

A photograph of a garden walkway lined with lawn, potted plants and flowering shrubs, with a white boundary wall and trees behind. A woman in an orange and pink sari carries a brass tray with a red flower on it along a stone path. Walking behind her is a man in a saffron-orange robe with a long hair and a red and white garland around his neck, a candidate for Swamiji (probable) by appearance cues, shown in a visible procession-like walk. Behind them, a group of men and women in white, cream and orange clothes follows along the path, some standing near a small pond.
