A photograph of a ceremony on a stage. A bald man in a cream kurta and glasses reaches up with both arms to place or adjust a red-orange cloth over the head of a seated figure. The seated figure wears a rust-red robe, has long dark dreadlocked hair, a white forehead marking, and sits on a leopard-print cushion before an ornate silver throne with a blue backdrop. Behind them stand two people with white-painted faces and bodies in white garments, and a figure in red at the left edge. The scene reads as a darshan blessing.

A photograph of a ceremonial darshan in a hall with a red stage backdrop and a large sunset-scene screen. On the left, a bare-chested priest in a red dhoti and a dark head wrap stands beside a seated deity murti on a gold throne, garlanded with red and white flowers, with brass offering bowls before it. On the right, a seated man with long dark hair wears a red robe, white flower garlands and a rudraksha-style red-and-white mala, seated on a silver ornate throne with a leopard-print cushion and lion armrests, under a silver canopy with a trident beside him. Oil lamps and offerings are placed on a green cloth. a person candidate is seated on the throne, with long swept-back hair, red robes and garlands.

A seated man in a rust-red robe wears a long pink-and-white flower garland and a white forehead band with a red mark, sitting on a red cushioned throne with gold carved panels. He smiles and extends his hands over a silver tray holding small bowls, flowers and lamps. A man in white with an orange shawl bends forward to offer the tray. Behind them, two young women in orange dresses hold silver trays, an older man in white with glasses and a forehead mark sits to the right, and a rudraksha mala hangs across a white-clad woman's chest. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a flower garland and red ritual clothing, consistent with the page's claim.

A seated man in a rust-red robe and a long pink-and-white flower garland smiles broadly on an ornate gold-and-red throne. His forehead bears white and red sacred markings, and a rudraksha mala hangs at his chest. A man in a white shirt kneels at right, offering a silver tray of yellow flowers and small brass vessels. Behind them a figure in a white dhoti with a gold border stands beside a silver staff, and women in pink, green and maroon saris hold offering trays. The gold carved backdrop suggests a ritual reception at a temple-style hall.
