A long-haired figure in orange robes sits on an orange-draped seat at left, with fruit on a tray beside them, extending a hand toward a smiling man in a pink checked shirt and cream trousers who bows barefoot. Around them stand devotees: a woman in a red blouse and patterned sari, an older man in white, a woman in a maroon sari, and an orange-robed person at right. A small child in a red floral shirt stands at far right.

A bare-chested man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing an orange saffron cloth and a large pink flower garland, sits on a zebra-striped armchair smiling and holding a red fruit toward a kneeling man in a light green striped shirt who has his palms joined. Behind them a priest in white dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala stands beside a saffron-robed sannyasi. Seated devotees in white clothes line the left wall, and a uniformed police officer stands near a speaker and audio equipment. The longhaired seated figure has distinctive long hair, saffron clothing and a garland, so he is a person candidate in an in-person setting, though his face is not used for identification.2011-12-09A photograph inside a small room with pale green walls, a wall niche holding a framed picture, and a striped multicolour mat on the floor.

Kneeling before him, a man in orange robes and rudraksha beads is being attended by seated devotees, a woman in a white sari, a woman in a maroon top with a child in green, and a man in white dhoti with a brass plate of flowers and offerings. Standing figures in orange and white watch from the open doorway. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure on the throne, identified by the long hair, maroon robe, rudraksha beads, and garland, performing a padapuja for devotees.2014-07-01A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with a white-and-pink flower garland sits on a raised orange cushioned seat in a small room with floral floor covering.
