A seated devotee in a white kurta, holding a red fruit in cupped hands, smiles as a figure in orange robes and an orange turban rests a hand on his head. The orange-clad figure wears layered gold necklaces, gold bangles and an orange shawl, seated on a gold-carved throne before a large orange and yellow backdrop with brass lamps. A basket of red fruit sits at lower left and a man in white stands at the left edge holding a paper.

A seated figure on a gold-carved throne with a deep red velvet cushion, wearing an orange turban, orange saffron robes with gold-trimmed borders, layered rudraksha and gold beaded necklaces, and gold armlets. He smiles while reading a sheet of paper held in both hands. A standing man in white shirt and white dhoti leans in from the left, gesturing and speaking to him. Another younger man in a white kurta stands behind them. Brass oil lamps and a small brass kalasha-like object stand beside the throne against an orange-toned backdrop. The seated figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate with orange turban, saffron robes and rudraksha necklaces on a throne.

A seated figure in an orange saffron robe with a long orange shawl and a wooden bead necklace sits on a gold upholstered throne with carved black armrests, smiling, with long dark hair swept back and a red bindi. A man in a white kurta kneels before the throne on the stage, clasping the seated figure's hand and offering something. A second man in orange kneels to the left wearing a garland, and another orange-clad attendant stands behind. Marigold flowers lie on the stage, and a microphone stand stands at right against a pastel painted backdrop. The seated figure has distinctive long hair, saffron robes and a bead necklace, a Swamiji (probable) cue, presented as the honoured figure on the throne.

A seated figure in orange-saffron robes and a matching orange turban with a gold-trimmed edge touches the forehead of a man in a white kurta and white dhoti-style clothing who kneels before him. The seated figure wears long rudraksha-style beaded malas, gold bangles on the upper arm and wrist, and a red tilak, and smiles while holding an open printed booklet with a photograph on its cover. Behind them, a gilded golden throne or altar backdrop and an orange cloth are visible. The kneeling man wears glasses and red and gold wrist threads. This appears to be a padapuja-style blessing with personal touch.

A stage event under a white tent with a gold-framed canopy and a framed portrait of a saffron-robed figure with a crown-like headwear behind the seated figures. A man in a red-orange turban and orange-red robes, with rudraksha and beaded necklaces, sits on an orange cushioned seat extending his hand toward a seated figure in orange robes who is being greeted. A younger boy in a white turban and orange shawl sits beside them, and a man in white shirt and orange shawl stands at right with hands folded in greeting. Bright orange seating and garlands of flowers decorate the platform.

Photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban, with gold beaded necklaces and gold armlets, smiling as he receives a folded paper from a man in a white shirt and white dhoti who leans in from the left. A second man in a white shirt stands partly visible at the far left. Behind them stand brass oil lamps and an ornate gold throne with a deep red velvet seat against an orange and yellow backdrop.

A stage event with a long-haired figure seated on an ornate yellow throne with black carved armrests, wearing an orange saffron shawl and orange garment, a beaded rudraksha-style mala and a gold ceremonial necklace, with a red-and-gold forehead mark and bare feet. A man in a white shirt and white trousers kneels in front of him, offering a folded paper or card with both hands. Beside them, a second man kneels in an orange top with a yellow-and-green garland, and a few people stand in the background, including a woman in pink. A painted backdrop of soft clouds and sky fills the stage, and a microphone stand sits at the right edge.

A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate yellow throne-style chair on a stage. The figure wears orange saffron robes, a draped orange shawl, a long gold-beaded necklace and a small red-and-yellow forehead mark, with long swept-back dark hair. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a gold beaded necklace, seated in the central position of honour. A kneeling man in a white kurta leans forward to hand a small printed card or paper to the seated figure, while a younger man in orange with long hair and a gold necklace kneels to the left. A microphone stands on a stand at the right of the throne, and a painted backdrop of pale pink and orange hues fills the background.

A photograph of a seated figure in orange robes and an orange turban placing a hand on the forehead of a man in a white kurta and glasses who bows forward. The seated figure wears rudraksha malas, gold bangles and an orange shawl, and holds a small printed booklet showing a portrait. Behind them are gold ornate decorations and an orange cloth. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the candidate a person in orange saffron robes, turban and rudraksha malas, but the page does not confirm his presence, so identity is uncertain.

Photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a microphone stand beside him, smiling as a man in a white kurta kneels and offers a book with a framed photo to him. Two saffron-robed men stand at left, one holding papers and one with a long beard, while a bald man in saffron sits lower at right, all on a red floral carpet in a tent-like space with stacked books, a fan, and a gold lion-shaped armrest. The page's a person claim is not supported by distinctive visible cues beyond the throne and orange robes, so the seated figure is marked unsure.
