Photo of a central figure with long dark wavy hair, wearing an orange-saffron top and a rudraksha mala, with a red bindi on the forehead, standing before an ornate gilded carved backdrop with a red velvet panel. Around him are young devotees in white and orange clothing, a woman in a green veil, and a woman with a jasmine-and-white flower garland in her hair. Marigold and flower garlands frame the scene.

A photograph of a crowd gathered around a central figure in front of an ornate gold-framed red throne decorated with marigold and red flower garlands against a blue wall. The central figure has long dark hair, wears an orange saffron garment and a rudraksha mala, and appears to be speaking. Around him, devotees in white dhotis and turbans, a man in an orange turban, and women in red and green saris and red headscarves press close. Children in white and red clothing are visible in the foreground, and a white and red floral garland hangs in the middle of the scene.

A smiling man with long dark hair, a red forehead mark and a bare upper chest stands before an ornate gold throne decorated with yellow, pink and red flowers and white jasmine garlands. He wears an orange saffron shawl over a rudraksha mala and a thick white and green flower garland. Around him, smiling people in white and orange clothing crowd close, including a man in white with an orange shawl and a woman in white with a red bindi.

A smiling figure with long dark hair and an orange saffron cloth draped over the shoulder, wearing a long garland of white and red flowers with green leaves and a strand of rudraksha beads, stands among a crowd of people in white shirts and an orange headband. Swamiji (probable): this person has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha beads and a flower garland, matching the page's description of the Master receiving a royal reception. Behind him is an ornate green-and-gold throne with a red seat and yellow and purple floral decorations. Several onlookers, including a woman at right, face toward him.

The blue wall and garlanded throne suggest a festival ritual setting.
