A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate red and gold throne, with long dark hair swept back, a rudraksha mala draped across the shoulders, and a brown-red robe, holding a phone to the ear and smiling. Beside him a man in white kurta with a red shawl kneels and offers a small framed picture and a gold-toned rod. Behind them a woman in a cream and gold sari with an orange shawl stands, and several people in red, orange and pink saris and kurtas watch from the background. Green foliage and a grey equipment box are visible at the right edge.2016-05-11Indoor photograph in a ceremonial setting with a gold-carved throne and red cushioned seating. A man in long swept-back hair, a white tilak, a rudraksha-style gold necklace of heavy beads, gold armbands, and an orange-brown robe sits on the red seat smiling and reaching toward a kneeling man in a white shirt with a red tilak who is looking up and smiling. A younger man in an orange robe with white body markings and a heavy gold bead necklace stands behind, holding a pink wrapped gift. A woman in a brown embroidered dress and a man in a black polo with an event lanyard stand to the left.

Green foliage and a red backdrop complete the scene.2016-05-08March 13 20132013-03-13A photograph inside a room with a large gilded throne. A long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes sits on a leopard-print cushioned seat and reaches to take a red apple from a kneeling devotee in orange robes, who has his hands pressed together. A standing man in a white shirt with an orange shawl and forehead markings stands at left, and another man in a striped orange-and-navy shirt is at right. A cameraperson with a video camera stands behind. A golden lion-shaped object sits near the throne, and a framed painting hangs on the wall. The seated figure matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of long swept-back hair and saffron robes with a rudraksha mala, seated in a throne role. Several people are visible.2016-05-04A seated figure on a gold ornate throne with red velvet backdrop receives devotees.

Other devotees in saffron and brown robes with rudraksha malas and tilak marks stand and sit nearby, some holding hardback books, and a red-cushioned seat is at right. A printed credit line overlays the image, and the book covers show a temple scene with a deity image.

Behind them, a standing man in orange and gold holds a rudraksha mala, and a young man in white with a rudraksha mala watches from the left.
