A photograph of a seated man in an orange-saffron cloth wearing a multi-strand rudraksha-style bead and gold necklace and a pink, blue and yellow flower garland. He has long swept-back hair, a white tilak with a red dot, and is placing his hand on the head of a young man in a white-and-lilac checked shirt who holds a folded white paper. Behind him a bald man in white with orange cloth and white tilak looks on, and a red and gold throne with colourful flower arrangements stands in the background. Appearance cues are consistent with the a person candidate, so the central figure is labelled a person receiving and blessing a devotee.

A seated man with a dark hair bun, wearing an orange-saffron shawl draped over his bare shoulder and a long gold bead necklace, places his right hand on the head of a smiling young boy in a red, black and white striped shirt. Behind them, several women in saris and a girl with curly blonde hair stand and sit in a crowded hall with red drapery and a white wall-mounted air unit. The scene resembles a blessing being given to a child during a gathering, and the seated man is a person by appearance cues including the hair bun, saffron shawl and long gold necklace.

A man with long dark dreadlocked hair and a rudraksha mala with a gold-toned bead necklace, wearing an orange-saffron cloth draped over his shoulders, sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne and reaches forward to touch the head of a kneeling woman in a white sari with a red border. She bows with hands folded and holds a folded white paper. Behind them stand a group of women in orange and red saris, several wearing lanyards, and a brass oil lamp stands beside the throne. A white fan or cooler sits in the background on a red wall. The man's appearance with long hair, saffron clothing and mala beads matches the page's claim, so the label is probable: Swamiji (probable), giving blessing to a devotee.

A seated man with long dark swept-back hair, orange-red robes, a thick gold beaded necklace, orange rudraksha-style mala and a red-orange vibhuti/tilak mark on his forehead rests his right hand on the head of a small child in a yellow t-shirt. Swamiji (probable): long hair, saffron-orange robes, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklaces, seated on a gold-and-orange peetha/throne, blessing the child. Two women in the foreground watch, one with her hair in a bun and gold earrings. A large portrait of a smiling woman with orange-red garments hangs behind, and a white-robed figure sits at the upper right. On the red cloth in front are small packets, a silver container and a bell-like object.

A seated man with long dark hair and an orange-brown robe, wearing a long rudraksha mala, reaches out to touch the forehead of a young blond boy in a white t-shirt who wears a red and rudraksha mala and presses his palms together. Behind them a man in white dhoti with gold border, rudraksha mala and sandalwood tilak smiles, and devotees in white and orange stand in the background. Bright red cushions and a flower garland decorate the dais.

A seated figure in an orange-brown saffron wrap, long swept-back black hair and a long string of rudraksha beads over the chest extends a hand to the crown of a young boy in white kurta with a red lanyard and glasses, who has his palms joined. Behind them a man in white dhoti with gold border and rudraksha mala watches, and a few devotees in white and orange stand in a hall. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and saffron clothing, consistent with the page's Swamiji reference.
