A ceremonial scene under a decorated tent with silver and gold ornamentation. A man seated on a gold-trimmed throne wears a red-orange turban, orange-saffron robe and layered gold and bead necklaces, and his arm is extended as a devotee in white with a red-and-gold shawl kneels at his side. Another devotee in white with a red shawl stands behind the throne wearing a rudraksha mala and tilak. Women in saffron and red attire kneel on the left, one holding a phone-style object and another holding offering items. Behind them are silver deity murtis and a red-draped figure, and a gold footstool sits in front of the throne. Red carpet covers the floor and tall brass lamps stand at right.

A golden throne with an ornate arched back sits at the centre of a temple-style stage, backed by a large painted banner of a saffron-robed figure on the left and a bow-wielding warrior in gold ornaments on the right. A man in a magenta-and-gold turban, pink dhoti and a long white flower garland with red blossoms sits on the throne with his hands resting on his knees. Before him, a gold-and-brass offering table holds flowers and small items. Seated devotees face him: a woman in a deep red sari, a man in a white shirt with folded hands, and a bare-chested priest in white dhoti with a sacred thread and wrist beads, all in a satsang or darshan setting. Brass oil lamps flank the throne. The figure on the throne is described by appearance as a person, with turban, flower garland and ceremonial pink clothing, though this is uncertain.

A seated figure on a gold-and-red throne with a red velvet cushion receives devotees. The seated figure wears an orange-and-yellow turban, a white flower garland, a pink-magenta draped cloth, a red-and-gold shawl and gold bangles, with rudraksha-style beads at the chest. He touches the head of a bowing man in a white kurta, while a woman in an orange-and-green sari bows with hands folded. Standing devotees in teal and white attire hold offerings, and a large orange-robed portrait is behind the throne. Red flowers and a brass tray lie at the base of the throne. This looks like a darshan and blessing scene.

Wall banners in orange and cream sit behind the group.

A stage event with a bright yellow and orange sunburst backdrop. A seated figure on a gold and red throne, draped in orange robes with a red-orange cloth over the shoulders and a dark red marking on the forehead, is being attended by devotees. The throne is decorated with pink and white flower garlands and a gold footstool with flowers. A man in white shirt and white dhoti stands at the centre-left extending his hands toward the seated figure, while a woman in a green sari with a red blouse and a braid stands beside the throne. Other women in white sarees and a man in white shirt and white dhoti stand nearby, some with hands folded. The seated figure has appearance cues (orange robes, swept-back hair, rudraksha-style styling) but identity is not established from the image alone, so the a person value is unsure. Visible people total about six.
