Photograph of several men in an indoor corridor with pale walls, glass windows and a tiled floor. A central man with long dark hair, a full dark beard and a saffron-orange wrap draped over his body holds a folded white cloth in one hand. Beside him, an older bald man in saffron robes and glasses stands, and an older man with white beard and saffron wrap faces him in conversation. On the right, a man in a white shirt and yellow-green lungi stands with his hair tied up. A man in a white shirt is partly visible at the left edge. The central figure shows distinctive long hair, beard and saffron wrap, but the appearance cues are not conclusive enough to confirm his identity.

Indoor photograph in a pale pink room with a wooden door and window shutters. A man with long, swept-back black hair and an orange robe, with a rudraksha mala hanging to his waist, faces a bearded man in a saffron-orange robe on the left, gesturing with one hand as they talk. Behind them, other people in orange and saffron robes sit on chairs, one in white with a red bindi. A bald man in white stands at the far left near a table. An older woman in cream clothing and a man in orange sit in the background.

A photograph taken indoors in a plain whitewashed hall with a metal-framed roof and an open doorway. A group of about fifteen men in saffron and orange robes stand in a loose semicircle, several with rudraksha malas and beards. In the centre, a man with long dark swept-back hair wears an orange robe and a rudraksha mala and stands with hands folded, appearing to address the group; the appearance is consistent with the a person candidate described on the page, but it is uncertain. To the left, a man in a white dhoti and white kurta with a saffron shawl and a mala holds a pink folder. Older men in white and a man in a maroon shirt stand at the right edge. A small framed picture hangs on the upper left wall.

A photograph of four men walking through a narrow, unpainted concrete corridor with a pinkish tiled floor. The man on the right, walking barefoot, wears a long saffron-orange robe draped over one shoulder and has long, swept-back dark hair; he is the most prominent figure, with a tilak-marked forehead. Beside and behind him, two men in saffron-orange robes walk together, one raising a hand toward a white door. Another man in white clothing stands at the far left edge. One saffron-clad figure in front holds a red object in his hand. A dark drum or bucket sits at the right edge beside a white wall. Long hair and saffron robes are visible, but the figures are not clearly identified by name in the scene.

Photograph of three men at an indoor entrance with a white pillared wall and framed black-and-white photos on the left. The central man has long dark hair, a white vibhuti mark on his forehead and wears an orange sleeveless wrap over bare shoulders. He is looking down while a man in a white garment with a ponytail on the left and a man in orange robes with a maroon border on the right adjust or attend to the wrap. Green leaf garlands hang above and multicoloured flags frame the scene. a person cues are not sufficiently distinctive here, so the central man is described by role as a devotee being attended to.

A photograph in a plain whitewashed hall with blue metal bunk beds and an open door at right. A figure with long swept-back dark hair, wearing an orange sleeveless top, orange wrap and a rudraksha-style mala, stands at left and rests a hand on the bare shoulder of an elderly bald man in a peach-coloured cloth and a beaded neck garland. Behind them stands another man in orange. At right a young man in a white kurta, white dhoti and orange shawl stands with folded arms. Cues for a person appearance are the long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and orange clothing of the figure at left, who appears to be the one giving blessing or healing. The image is an appearance-based candidate, so the a person value is unsure.

A photograph of five men standing outdoors in front of a pink building decorated with a doorway garland of white jasmine and orange and yellow marigolds. At left, a man in white clothes with a saffron shawl listens. Next, a smiling man with long curly hair wears a bare chest, an orange-red wrap and a rudraksha mala, holding a dark bag. Beside him, a man in an orange robe holds the dark bag and faces away. At right, an older man in glasses wears an orange-brown robe, and a bald man in an orange robe and wrap stands near the wall. Another man in white is partly visible behind them. The scene shows casual conversation among sannyasi-style devotees.

Indoor photograph of a room with cream walls, two wall sconce lights glowing, a framed picture, curtains and a wooden cabinet holding small figurines. A seated figure in long dark hair and an orange robe sits on a patterned cushion, smiling, with a shawl draped over the shoulders. Beside him a standing man in an orange robe and another in a long dark-haired orange wrap stand close, and at right a man in a white shirt with a dark cord around his neck stands facing them. A rug lies on the floor and plastic chairs line the right side. The seated figure matches the appearance cues of the page's subject with long hair and orange clothing, but the image does not clearly establish identity, so the a person field is set to unsure.
