A photograph of two smiling men seated on an ornate silver-and-gold carved chair with red cushions in front of a yellow draped backdrop. On the right, a man with long matted dreadlocks, a vertical tilak on his forehead, a rust-red saffron shawl over bare shoulders, a gold pendant necklace and gold rings holds a white tablet or phone out toward the other man, who wears thin-rimmed glasses and a cream zip-up fleece with a navy collar. Both are laughing as they look at the screen. Appearance-based candidate: a person, with long dreadlocks, saffron shawl and gold necklace, shown in a seated, laughing pose sharing a screen with a companion.

Two men take a selfie together on a pink smartphone, both smiling broadly. The man on the left has long dreadlocks, a white tilak across his forehead with a red vertical mark, and a rust-red shawl draped over bare shoulders with a gold pendant necklace and a red thread on his wrist. He sits on an ornate silver carved chair. The man on the right has short wavy hair and wears a cream button-up kurta. Behind them are yellow and orange draped fabrics and a table with flowers and bottles. The left man shows distinctive long hair, saffron-toned ceremonial clothing and ornaments, so he is a probable Swamiji candidate shown in person.

Two men sit face to face in a warmly lit hall with gold-carved decor behind them. On the right, a smiling man with long dark hair and a beard wears a rust-red shawl over a bare upper body, a tilak on his forehead, a long gold-bead necklace and gold armlets; he is seated on a red-cushioned throne and reaches to rest his hand on the other man's hand. On the left, an elderly bearded man with white hair and glasses wears a white dhoti and white shawl with a gold border and a rudraksha mala, leaning forward with his palms joined and held out. Gold drapery and a golden pillar fill the background, and a person in white is partly visible at the left edge. The image is a photograph; the appearance-based cues of the seated man (long hair, gold necklaces, rust shawl, throne) are consistent with Swamiji (probable) seated in the throne, though this is an appearance-based label only.

A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala with ornate gold necklaces sits on a red and gold throne, smiling with eyes closed, a red tilak on his forehead and gold armbands on his upper arm. A balding older man in a light checked shirt kneels before him holding a gold-framed document. A younger man with a red tilak and beaded mala stands behind, and a camera tripod is visible at left. Gold ornate throne carvings frame the scene. The seated man matches the a person cues of saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklaces.

A seated man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing a rust-orange wrap, a multi-strand rudraksha mala and a gold ceremonial necklace, reaches out to touch the forehead of an older devotee. The seated figure sits on an ornate gold throne-like chair in front of a floral backdrop with green foliage, pink and orange flowers and gold garlands. The standing-to-kneeling devotee wears spectacles, a grey sweater and a red patterned shawl, and presses his palms together in greeting. Gold garlands and a silver staff are visible in the background.

He has a red tilak on his forehead and is smiling warmly. An older man in a cream-coloured short-sleeved shirt leans in close, bending toward him and touching his shoulder. Background includes pink drapes and gold swan motifs.

A photograph of a seated man in an orange-red shawl and a long rudraksha-style mala necklace, with long swept-back hair, laughing as he extends a hand holding small wrapped sweets to a standing man in a black vest over a pink striped shirt. Behind them stands an ornate gold throne with a carved arched back against an orange wall, and red zebra-print cushions. The seated man holds an open book on his lap. Two physical people are visible.

A seated man in a rust-red turban and rust-orange robe with a rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders and a gold chain at his neck sits on a leopard-print cushioned seat in front of a large ornate gold-leaf throne backdrop. He smiles and has a red bindi on his forehead. Beside him stands a smiling man with glasses and a moustache wearing a coral-pink polo shirt and an orange lanyard badge, with his arm near the seated man. Red threads are visible on his wrist. A red-and-orange cloth and a leopard-print cushion lie in the lower left.

Photo of a satsang moment in which a man in a white kurta with an orange-and-maroon shawl holds up a folded paper near his face while raising his right palm. Facing him, a bare-chested man with long dark hair, a beard, a gold-bead necklace and a rudraksha mala, wearing a rust-orange wrap, reaches toward the paper. Behind them is a golden ornate throne with a red cushion. A partially visible figure in white stands at left.
