A seated man in a rust-red robe with a rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders sits on an ornate gold throne carved with lions and draped with a tiger-stripe cloth and red cushions. A man in white kneels before him, touching his bare feet in a padapuja gesture. To the left, a younger man in orange robes with a garland stands beside a silver-tipped trident. On the right, a woman in a white sari with a red forehead mark and mala holds a yellow cloth bag. a person: the seated man has shoulder-length swept-back dark hair, a rudraksha mala and a rust-red robe, consistent with the page's reference to a person, but the appearance cues are only partially distinctive.

Photograph inside an orange and white striped tent at a Hindu religious gathering. A man on the right with long swept-back dark hair wears white dhoti-style garments with gold borders, a gold chain and a silver ceremonial staff, and a beaded armlet on his upper arm; he looks down. In front of him, a figure with long dreadlocked hair, a peach-coloured turban and a gold ornament across the head kneels with palms pressed together and bangled wrists. Behind them, a bald man in saffron-orange robes and gold beaded necklaces stands, and several men in white and saffron clothing and devotees stand among the crowd, some holding up phones.

A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with an orange turban, a long rudraksha mala and a bead necklace sits on a golden throne with red velvet cushions, smiling and holding a small book or card. Beside him a standing attendant in orange robes and a bead necklace holds a silver staff. Around the dais, older men sit on the floor and on a bench, including one in a light pastel kurta with a walking cane, another in a lavender vest with a red lanyard, and a bald man in a mustard shirt. A gilded lion-shaped figure rests on the dais, and framed painted panels of deities hang on the wall behind.

A seated figure in a maroon-red turban and rust-red robe with a leopard-print cloth, wearing a long white and red flower garland and gold armbands, smiles as he receives a small red object from a kneeling man in a white-and-blue striped shirt. The seated figure sits on a red cushioned seat on a red carpet, with a second kneeling man in white at the lower right. Behind them stand several men in white shirts and white dhotis, one wearing an orange shawl, with a woman in a maroon sari and a figure in white with gold trim at the left edge.

A seated man in a red-orange turban and saffron-orange robe, with a gold beaded necklace, bracelets and a red-and-gold throne, extends his right hand to the forehead of a kneeling man in a white shirt and black wristwatch whose palms are pressed together in namaskar. The seated man holds a round orange fruit in his left hand. Behind them a woman in a white blouse and brown-beaded shawl with a rudraksha mala stands beside a woman in red and gold. The backdrop is a gilded carved wooden screen with lattice openings.

A photograph inside an orange-draped tent at a crowded event. In the centre, a man with long swept-back hair wears a tall orange turban, an orange robe and shawl, and layered ornate gold necklaces with a rudraksha mala; he raises one hand in address. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, turban, saffron robe and ornate gold necklaces match the cues. To his right, a shaved-headed man in orange robes and a rudraksha mala stands beside him. On the left, a devotee in white dhoti with a rudraksha mala looks on, and in the foreground a man in a brown vest bends low, touching the floor in obeisance. Many other people in orange, white and casual clothes fill the background, with orange banners and hanging decorations above.
