A photograph of a seated figure on a gold-and-leopard-print throne, wearing a tall black turban, white forehead markings, orange-saffron cloth draped over the shoulders, rudraksha mala beads and gold bangles, receiving an offering from a bowing man in an orange robe who has grey hair. A second man in the background, wearing a rudraksha mala, a red bindi and a dark-orange garment, watches. Gold ornate carving and maroon curtains form the backdrop. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure, identified by the turban, saffron clothing and ornate gold throne; the figure appears to be receiving reverence from a devotee.

A seated man in an orange sleeveless robe and dark rudraksha mala necklaces, with long swept-back dark hair, sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne and smiles while clasping hands with an older man in a beige short-sleeved shirt who bows in greeting. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha malas, seated on a throne. To the left, two men in white dhoti-style clothing with sacred markings stand with hands folded in namaste. Behind them is a dark stone shrine with a carved deity murti and a stone pillar, with red curtains and yellow flowers in the background.

A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne in a red-curtained hall, wearing a rust-orange turban, long rudraksha and gold bead malas, bangles and an orange-and-gold dress, smiling and resting a hand on a cushion. Seated beside him is a bald man with a yellow tilak, glasses and a rudraksha mala over orange-red robes, hands folded. A kneeling man with long hair in a bun and an orange shawl presses his palms together before the throne. Standing behind are people in white and cream dhotis with rudraksha malas and a woman in a blue kurta and red leggings. Behind the throne stands a brass oil lamp and a gilded deity murti. Appearance-based candidate, probable Swamiji (probable), is the figure on the throne, identified by the turban, rudraksha and gold malas and ceremonial dress; the cues are compatible but not fully distinctive.
