Outdoor photograph on a dry, reddish-brown earth path with sparse grass and a bright sky behind. A tall man with long dark hair and a heavy rudraksha mala stands in a long orange robe with gold edging and bare feet, a probable Swamiji by his long swept hair, orange ornate robe and rudraksha cues. Beside him a younger shaven-headed man wears a saffron-orange robe and holds a small item. Around them a crowd of about twenty men and women in shirts, dhotis and white clothes stand and walk; a woman in a pink and yellow sari stands at left. In the foreground a man in a blue shirt and grey trousers faces the group with his back to the camera.

August 01 20082008-08-01Outdoor photo of a crowd standing on dry, bare ground near a building and trees. In the centre, a man wears a saffron-orange shawl draped over one shoulder and a saffron-orange dhoti with gold-edged borders, with long swept-back dark hair, a tilak on his forehead, a rudraksha mala and sandals; he stands with hands clasped, which is an appearance-based candidate for a person. Around him, men wear white shirts and white dhotis, one holding a tablet, women wear sarees including white and patterned ones, a girl wears a blue checked top, and an orange-robed figure stands at the right edge. About 15 to 20 people are visible.2012-04-02December 15 20062006-12-15April 01 20082008-04-01Outdoor photo on a hillside at dusk beside a rocky, tree-covered hill. A long-haired figure in a saffron-orange garment with a rudraksha mala stands centre-right, smiling, with a second saffron-robed sannyasi with shaved head to their left. Around them are men in white dhotis and shirts, one in a checked shirt seen from behind, and a woman in a white sari with gold border at the left edge. Tall grass and palms frame the scene. Their identity is not established from appearance, so the figure is described by role.2008-04-01November 13 20052005-11-13April 01 20082008-04-01December 15 20062006-12-15November 13 20052005-11-13Outdoor photo on a dusty dirt ground with trees and a bush behind a wire fence. A central figure in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl, with long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala beads and bangles, walks barefoot and looks ahead; the appearance cues are distinctive, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) figure in procession. Beside him a man in a white dhoti holds a tray of yellow flowers, and a woman in a blue sari carries a bag. Other devotees in white dhotis, shirts and a red-shirted boy stand around with hands folded, and a stone-coloured jacketed man stands at left. Several people are visible, roughly a dozen.2011-12-09Outdoor photograph on a reddish-brown dirt ground beside a heap of gravel rocks, under an overcast sky with palm trees on the horizon.
