A photograph of a group in a narrow whitewashed corridor with a framed deity picture above. A central man in a rust-brown robe, rudraksha mala necklaces and a fresh white and yellow flower garland with red blossoms is smiling and gesturing with an open hand, and appears to be the a person, based on the long swept-back hair, ornate clothing and rudraksha malas. Around him stand saffron-robed attendants with rudraksha malas and white tilak marks, and an elderly bald man in a white shirt with a gold-trimmed vesti stands at left, holding out a small silver tray. To the right, a man in a white shirt and striped top stands among others. Several figures are in the frame, and the framed picture on the wall shows a deity murti.

A photograph of a group of men in saffron and orange robes entering a small room through a blue-framed doorway. In the foreground a man with long dark hair and a shoulder-length white and yellow garland, wearing an orange-red cloth and rudraksha beads on his arm, stands near the doorway and looks ahead. Beside him an older bald man in a white shirt and white forehead band, with a rudraksha mala and a golden-brown dhoti, walks through the door. Other devotees in orange and red garments follow behind. On the left a framed portrait hangs on the wall, and a calendar and small picture are visible above. Five to six people are visible.

A photograph inside a narrow whitewashed corridor with a framed Ganesha portrait on the wall above. A bald man in a white shirt, brown-and-gold dhoti and multiple rudraksha malas stands at centre, a white tilak on his forehead, holding hands with a man in an orange cloth and beaded necklace. Around them, several men in saffron-orange robes and rudraksha malas, one with long dreadlocks wearing a white and orange flower garland, and a woman in a dark patterned sari with gold bangles stand with palms pressed together. An older man in a white shirt and dhoti stands at left. The atmosphere is one of devotional greeting in a temple-like passage.

A photograph of four men walking through a narrow corridor with pale green walls and a pink metal door behind them. The man at centre wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over his body, a black and white beaded mala, and a white horizontal tilak on his forehead; he has swept-back grey hair and his hand is raised toward the others. Beside him on the right, a man with a shaved head wears a red-and-gold dhoti, a red-brown garland and gold-coloured ceremonial necklace. On the left, a man in white dhoti with gold border and a red-brown garland stands beside a red-and-orange shoulder bag. Behind them a man in a red turban and gold-accented saffron cloth wears a gold pendant on a beaded chain. Appearance cues for the central figure are moderate: orange cloth, beaded mala and swept-back hair, though the page identifies the event and no printed name appears.

A photograph inside a building with a wooden door and a grille window. In the centre, a man with long swept-back dark hair and a red-and-white forehead mark wears an orange shawl over his shoulders and a thick ornate gold bead necklace with a gold pendant. Behind him, two younger men in orange robes walk, one wearing a rudraksha mala. On the right, an elderly white-haired man with a white moustache and tilak wears white clothes with a rainbow sash. Several other people are partially visible at the left edge and in the background. The visible cues on the central man (long hair, orange shawl, gold beaded necklace) are consistent with Swamiji (probable), appearing in person and walking with attendants.

A photograph of a group walking through a dim temple corridor past ornate carved stone pillars and a golden-toned shrine, with a metal gate on the left. Centre, a man with long swept-back dark hair, a sandalwood-marked forehead, a red-orange dhoti and shawl, a white garland with red and green flowers, and a gold necklace walks with an older shaved-headed man in orange cloth and a flower garland. Behind them and left, a man in a white kurta carries a rudraksha mala and a uniformed official in khaki walks at the right edge; several orange-robed and white-clad attendants follow. Long swept hair, distinctive gold necklace and layered ceremonial garments make the centre figure a person candidate.

A nighttime procession in a stone-pillared temple corridor. In the centre, a man with long dark hair, a crown-like headband, white forehead markings, a red bindi, multiple gold necklaces and a rudraksha mala, wearing saffron-orange robes, walks while holding hands with a bald elderly man in saffron cloth with a white garland and a rudraksha mala. Around them, saffron-robed men with shaved heads and gold necklaces, a woman in a teal sari, and a bare-chested man in a gold-bordered dhoti with a white shirt walk along. The overlay credits the image to a person.
