A photograph of a seated man in a richly decorated altar setting, hands pressed together in anjali mudra with eyes closed. He wears a golden crown with a peacock feather, a white garment with gold-bordered cloth, a rudraksha mala and a gold pendant, and is garlanded with white jasmine and blue-dotted flower strands plus deep red blooms. He sits on a carved wooden throne with maroon velvet upholstery, flanked by a carved lion head and garlands of orange, pink and white flowers. A silver vessel heaped with pink petals and red blossoms sits before him. Swamiji (probable): the crown, rudraksha mala, gold ornaments and ceremonial white and gold garments are visible cues, seated on the throne as the honoured figure.

A man seated on an ornate throne decorated with garlands of white jasmine and orange and yellow marigolds, with carved wooden lion heads at the armrests and a large carved deity murti above. He wears a golden crown with a peacock feather, long dark hair, a white dhoti with yellow border, rudraksha malas and a gold necklace, and raises one hand in blessing while smiling. A silver vessel with flower garlands sits at his feet, with rose petals scattered on the floor. A man in white clothes with a rudraksha mala stands to the left. Colourful ceremonial umbrellas frame the top corners.

A seated man with long dark hair sits with eyes closed on a dark red quilted throne flanked by carved wooden lion-head armrests and ornate carved scroll supports. He wears a golden crown with a peacock feather, a rudraksha mala and a gold pendant, and is draped in layered white and orange-bordered garlands of jasmine and red roses. His crossed legs rest on a silver lotus-shaped base heaped with red and pink flowers, and a silver kalasha and brass lamp stand nearby on a white cloth. Floral garlands in red, yellow and white frame the throne in a festive ceremonial setting.

A man seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne under a jasmine-garland canopy, wearing a cream silk kurta with embroidered trim, white dhoti, gold-yellow turban with a red tilak, and a gold necklace, holding a rudraksha mala. A woman in a pale pink shawl kneels before him, touching his foot, while another woman in a grey-beige sari with a black beaded necklace stands at right. Flower garlands surround the throne and marigold petals are scattered at the base. Behind them is a large red-toned banner of a face.

A seated man in an orange-red silk garment sits on an ornate silver throne upholstered with a leopard-print cushion. He wears a tall gold crown, a gold bead necklace with a pendant, gold armlets and bangles, and a long garland of white jasmine, yellow and red flowers draped over his shoulders and down to his feet. He holds a silver staff upright. A bald, bare-chested priest in white cloth with a sacred thread kneels at the lower left with palms pressed together in greeting. A silver tray of flowers rests at the feet of the seated man. Behind him are silver repoussé panels and a gold-and-blue embroidered cloth. A man sits on a throne with ceremonial garlands, consistent with Swamiji (probable) described by crown, saffron-orange garments and gold necklaces, but the face is not used for identification. The seated figure's role is honoured guest or presiding teacher on a dais.

A man with long dark hair and a red vertical mark on his forehead sits on an ornate gold throne with a red velvet back, beneath a gold canopy with hanging leaf finials. He wears a white embroidered kurta and white shawl over a striped cloth, with a white jasmine garland and red and yellow flower garlands around his neck. Garlands in yellow, red, green and white, decorated with sparkling beads, frame the throne back, and a yellow and red flower garland lies on the cushion at his feet. A microphone on a stand stands to the right. Behind him a large printed banner shows a close-up face of an older bearded man with white hair. The image is a photograph of one person on a stage. Although the page indicates he is at this event, the appearance cues are a throne with garlands and a white embroidered outfit, but the face and hair are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so the appearance is uncertain.
