A seated figure in an orange-saffron robe with long dark swept-back hair and a gold ornamental necklace sits on an ornate gold-framed throne with red cushioned upholstery, raising one hand toward a man in a white shirt and white dhoti who offers a framed photograph or plaque. The man wears a rudraksha mala and bracelets and smiles. Around them stand several people: an older man in white, a woman in a cream sari with maroon border, a young girl with a braid, and a woman in a white and orange sari holding a framed item. A dark curtain forms the backdrop, and a water bottle and small items sit on a white table.

A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne, wearing an orange saffron robe, a long gold ceremonial necklace and long dark hair, with one hand raised to the forehead of a standing man in a white shirt and white dhoti who holds a rudraksha-style mala and a small object in his hands. Around them stand devotees: a bald older man in a white shirt at left, a girl in a white embroidered dress and gold-bordered skirt, a woman in white with an orange shawl, and others in white clothes behind. A dark curtain backs the stage. The scene appears to be a blessing or darshan moment. Swamiji candidate appearance: long swept-back hair, saffron robe and gold necklace seated on a throne, with the page noting his presence; identity is probable from these cues.

A photograph of an indoor event where a man in an orange-saffron robe with long, swept-back dark hair sits on a red-cushioned golden throne with an ornate gilt backrest, one hand raised in greeting while smiling. Facing him, a man in white shirt and trousers with a beaded wrist band and gold chain holds a small rolled item toward him. Beside them, a seated man in white dhoti with an orange shawl sits on the floor on a red rug, and a monk in orange robes stands behind a white table holding a tray. Several men in white shirts and a man in a yellow shawl stand around the room, with a dark blue curtain behind. A platter of fruit sits on the right.

A photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long dark hair, a rudraksha mala and a silver-coloured ceremonial necklace, on a red cushioned seat before an ornate gold throne with flower garlands. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands before him with palms pressed together in greeting, while the seated figure raises his hand in response. Behind them a robed attendant in orange stands with a tilak, and a golden lion-form decoration sits on the seat. Purple flowers lie at the front. The seated figure's appearance does not clearly establish identity, so the presence is recorded as unsure.

A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold-carved throne with red cushions, wearing a saffron-orange sleeveless garment and long dark wavy hair, receiving a gesture from a man in a white kurta and white dhoti with a dark rudraksha mala, who stands with palms pressed together in namaste near a small wooden table holding a tray with fruit and a framed picture. A woman in a cream sari with a yellow shawl stands beside him, a second woman in a cream sari and a red bindi stands behind, and a woman in a cream and gold sari with a brown bead necklace stands at left with hands folded. A green backdrop and a gold-framed chair complete the scene.

A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne, dressed in orange robes with long wavy dark hair, extending a hand in blessing toward a kneeling devotee in orange robes whose head is bowed. Standing around are several men in white shirts and white dhotis, one holding a small plate of offerings. Behind them a bald man in white with an orange shawl stands near a table holding fruit, a banana bunch, flowers and a red-and-yellow fruit. Dark blue draped curtains form the background.

A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a long beaded garland of coloured beads sits on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, in front of a painted backdrop of a large tree. A man in a white shirt and white trousers bends forward with his hands cupped, receiving or offering something to the seated figure, who extends a hand toward him. Standing to the left is a person in orange robes and another in white with a yellow shawl; a woman in a white garment with a yellow shawl stands behind, near a table holding fruit and a water bottle. The ritual appearance suggests a devotee receiving blessings. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, orange robes, a beaded mala and a gold throne, which are appearance cues for the page's Swamiji claim.
