A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with a long rudraksha mala and ornate gold necklace sits cross-legged on a carved wooden throne with a gold arched backrest and red cushion, holding a long staff across the lap. Two golden lion sculptures flank the throne, with flower arrangements of white anthuriums and purple blooms on the stage. A leopard-print rug lies at the front, with a shiny silver backdrop behind and a speaker on the right. The figure is rendered as a depiction on a stage.

A seated man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, wearing a long multi-strand pearl necklace, bangles and a jeweled headpiece, sits on a raised white-cushioned seat with golden lion-shaped pedestals. A multicolored umbrella with tassels shades him, flanked by potted flowering plants and purple flower arrangements against a silver backdrop. Seated devotees in orange and white clothes face the stage from the foreground, and a woman in orange sits at the right edge. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, identified by the saffron clothing, long swept-back hair and ornate pearl necklace; the page presents this as a 2012 darshan event. Audience and woman visible, total about six people.

A photograph of an indoor stage event where a seated figure sits on a red-cushioned throne flanked by two golden lion-shaped armrests, on a zebra-striped platform draped with a white cloth and a yellow floral-covered ledge. The seated person wears an orange and gold patterned garment, a white and red flower garland, a bindi, and has long dark hair; the figure is smiling with arms outstretched along the armrests. Above hangs a multicoloured ceremonial umbrella with tassels. Potted green plants, white lilies and flower arrangements surround the stage, a silver shimmering backdrop hangs behind, and a small golden deity murti sits on a table in the foreground beside a seated audience member in pink. Swamiji (probable) is indicated by the throne, flower garland and ceremonial setting with several cues including long hair, saffron-toned clothing and garlands.

A seated figure on a raised red-and-gold throne beneath a multicolored ceremonial parasol with a fringed border, on a wooden stage with potted plants and white lilies. The seated person wears a saffron-orange robe and a pink-and-white flower garland, with hands resting on the golden lion-headed armrests. A woman in a pink sari sits at the left edge, and a man in white ritual dress with a saffron cloth stands at the lower right beside a brass pooja tray with an oil lamp and a small deity murti. A golden offering platform and a tiger-striped drape sit below the throne, and speakers and studio lights frame the stage.

Empty ceremonial throne set on a stage before a maroon velvet drape. A red velvet seat with an ornate gold carved frame sits on a red and gold brocade-covered platform, beneath a yellow fringed parasol with red trim. Two orange and white pennants with a blue emblem flank the throne. Brass oil lamps, a green leaf and small offerings rest on a yellow and purple flower border, with potted ferns around. Behind it a man in a green striped shirt holds a camera, and a bald man in white dhoti and shawl stands near a table of metal plates.

A seated man in a saffron-orange robe sits on a red velvet throne with a gilded lion sculpture at its base, a dark rudraksha mala draped at his chest and his dark hair tied up at the back. To the right a figure in orange robes walks across a hall with white-draped tables and seated attendees, and a white flower arrangement with red carnations sits in front of the throne. A large standing fan and a black speaker stand at the right edge, while green foliage trails along the upper balcony and a framed painting hangs on the wall. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears a saffron-orange robe, a rudraksha mala and tied-up long hair on a throne, which are the qualifying cues for the page-named Swamiji.

A seated man sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head arms and a tiger-striped cloth draped over the base, smiling with hands folded in his lap. He wears a red-orange turban, a red-orange shawl over a bare shoulder, and a heavy multi-strand rudraksha-style bead necklace and bangles. Above him hangs a red fringed canopy, with a white fringed parasol to the right. The backdrop shows red brick pillars with gold ornamental panels and a photo of a temple among green hills. The scene is a stage set, with one visible person seated on the throne and no other people shown.

A man in red-orange robes and a deep red turban sits on an ornate golden throne with a gilded arched back and carved lion-headed armrests flanked by golden carved pillars. A golden canopy umbrella with fringed red and gold trim stands above him, and a tall silver-topped staff leans beside the throne. He wears layered gold necklaces, a red shawl draped over one shoulder, bangles on his wrists, and a red-and-gold cloth over his lap, with a white-striped cloth under him. He rests one hand on his knee and gestures with the other, looking toward the side. Bamboo foliage forms the backdrop, and the red carpeted stage holds a pair of orange slippers at the left edge. The figure's appearance matches the presentation cues of a person seated in a throne, though his identity is uncertain from the photo alone.
