A photograph of an indoor hall with pale walls and a wooden door framed by red draped fabric and a green foliage decoration. In the doorway, a man with long dark hair, in saffron-orange robes and a dark red-and-black beaded mala, stands with palms pressed together in greeting and a smile. Beside him on the right, a second man in saffron-orange robes, with a shorter beard, glasses and a pendant necklace, stands near a black speaker on a stand. At the lower left, the white-clad back of a seated person is visible. The mood is a welcoming reception with two people in orange robes.

A photograph of an office entrance being opened, with a long-haired figure in a flowing saffron-orange robe and a dark rudraksha mala walking through the doorway, hands held together at the chest. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala. Behind him, an older man in white shirt and white dhoti walks in, and another man in white shirt carries a tray. The doorway is decorated with a green leaf torana and a strand of flower garland. Two or three onlookers in light clothing stand outside a barred window on the right. Bare white-tiled floor and pale walls.

A photo of a figure in an orange-saffron robe and matching orange turban walking through an ornate red wooden doorway with gold circular medallions, a white flower garland with red and white flowers draped over his shoulders and a rudraksha mala at his chest. Around him, men in white dhotis and shirts walk in procession; one at right carries a silver tray, and another at left in white gestures toward flower garlands and marigold strings laid on the floor. Beyond the doorway, a shed is decorated with marigold festoons and blue drapery hangs by a window. A red carpet runs across the floor. The figure in orange has a distinctive turban, saffron robe and rudraksha mala, but the appearance is not clear enough to confirm identity, so the candidate is recorded as unsure.

A photograph of an indoor hall with pale tiled floor and white block walls. A woman in an orange saffron robe with a red rudraksha mala stands on a red mat at a doorway, hands pressed together in namaste. Behind her, a man in white clothing stands in the open doorway. A wooden cabinet, a black speaker and a metal bench are visible at the sides.

Photograph of a bright white interior room with a patterned striped rug on the floor. In the centre, a person in saffron-orange robes wearing a long garland of red and pink flowers walks forward barefoot, followed by another saffron-robed figure and a man in white with an orange cloth over his shoulder. On the left, two men in white shirts and white dhotis stand near a patterned mat, one wearing a lanyard and one wearing a chain necklace. A white-draped sofa sits on the right beside a wooden stool with brass plates of offerings and an arch of orange and yellow marigold garlands. Several people stand in the doorway and background, and a small framed photo row is on the wall.

A photograph inside a plain white-walled hall with a tented ceiling. A woman in an orange-red sari stands in a doorway with palms pressed together in namaskar, bare feet on a striped runner rug. Several women in white saris stand to the left with hands folded in greeting, and a man in white with an orange shawl stands by the open brown door. A wooden cabinet is at right and a yellow-and-gold decorated hanging is at top left.

A photograph inside a hall with a projection screen and red-and-yellow hanging banners. A man with long swept-back dark hair wears an orange saffron wrap, a gold-beaded necklace and a large gold pendant, and walks forward with hands at his sides; the appearance is a probable Swamiji (probable) candidate with long hair, saffron clothing and ceremonial gold necklaces. Beside him a shaven-headed man in orange wrap and beaded necklace carries a white tray. Behind them, men in white dhotis and shawls stand, and several young boys in white kurtas and one in a blue shirt stand with palms joined in greeting.

A photograph of an indoor hall under a white tent-like ceiling with hanging colourful cloth pillars and fluorescent lights. Several men in white shirts and dark trousers stand with palms pressed together in namaskar along the left side, some on orange mats. A woman in white stands near the centre. On a raised platform at right, a figure in an orange robe with a long rudraksha mala and a tall stand microphone stands by a white podium in front of red velvet drapes; the figure has long dark hair and is holding an orange cloth, with no clear cues to confirm an identity. A small orange-clad figure walks in the back doorway. Cardboard boxes sit at the lower right corner.
