A photograph of a seated man in an orange saffron robe and a long rudraksha mala, with long dark hair swept back and a red tilak on his forehead, smiling warmly at a devotee. The devotee in a white shirt kneels in the lower left with palms pressed together in a gesture of reverence. Behind them is a decorated altar draped in red and gold cloth, with pink gladioli, yellow marigolds, purple flowers and green foliage arranged in front, plus a brass pot and a garland-hung deity murti in the background. The scene suggests a padapuja, a ritual of honouring a guru's feet. A small visible bird logo appears in the upper left corner.2010-07-27A photograph of a smiling man with long dark hair, wearing a sleeveless saffron-orange robe and a long rudraksha mala with a red bindi on his forehead, seated in front of a deep maroon velvet curtain and a cream cushion. He raises one hand in a gesture of greeting toward an older bald man in a white shirt who leans toward him from the left edge of the frame. Another figure in orange is partly visible at the far left.

The second man, seen from behind, wears a white shirt with orange collar trim and raises his hand in a greeting gesture. A small gold trident-shaped object stands in the foreground, and a colourful painted backdrop with warm lamp light fills the background. The seated man is an appearance-based probable candidate for a person, with saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and a throne, though the swept-back hair cue is modest. The a person field records this uncertainty.2011-11-21A seated figure in saffron-orange shawl and loose orange garment, wearing a long rudraksha mala with large dark beads, sits before a large orange cushioned backrest and a red seat. The figure has long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on the forehead, smiling toward a man in a white shirt who bends forward at the left edge, reaching toward the seated figure's hand.

A bald older man in orange robes bends forward, holding a yellow fruit and a folded paper or money, offering them toward a seated man in orange robes with long dark hair, a red bindi and a dark rudraksha mala, who raises one hand in a gesture of speech. Behind them are brass lamps, a small brass bell, a kumkum box, and garlands of orange and purple flowers on a deity or altar display. Two younger men in orange stand at the left edge, one with a white forehead mark. A visible cues-based candidate appears in the seated man, with long hair, orange robes, rudraksha mala and a throne-like seat, so the appearance is a probable match; the bald offerer is a devotee.2010-07-15A seated man in an orange turban, orange shawl with gold border, and a red and white garland of flowers with black rudraksha beads smiles while a man in a white shirt sits in front of him with palms pressed together in greeting. Behind them stands a backdrop of red fairy lights, yellow marigold strands and white and red flowers, with a silver ceremonial staff at left and a striped throne cushion at right.
