A seated figure in a gilded golden throne with red velvet cushions, bare-chested, wearing an orange-and-gold cloth, a white-and-orange flower garland, a white sandalwood mark on the forehead and a rudraksha-style bead bracelet, receives an offering from a shaved-headed priest in orange robes who kneels in front and holds a small silver vessel. A golden lion-head armrest is at right. Behind, a standing attendant in orange and gold robes and a woman in white sari with a maroon shawl watch the scene beside a floor air conditioner. The figure's appearance is consistent with the candidate, but the cues are limited, so identity remains uncertain.

A woman in a rust-red garment and a thick yellow marigold garland sits on a gold-ornamented chair, extending her hands to a kneeling man in a striped collared shirt on a blue carpet. Behind her, a seated figure in orange robes with a saffron head covering sits on a gold throne, hands folded, next to a silver staff. A man in white kurta with a rudraksha mala stands at left, and a woman in white with a brown shawl and bead necklace stands at right. Gold lion-head armrests and an event hall setting frame the scene.

A seated man on an ornate silver-and-red throne with carved lion-head armrests receives a ceremony from attendants. He wears a rust-red robe, layered rudraksha malas, a gold necklace with gold medallions, and has a sandalwood tilak and long dark hair. Two attendants in saffron-orange cloth stand behind a kneeling devotee bare-chested in white dhoti; one attendant wears a leopard-print headwrap and holds a white cloth over the devotee's head, the other wears a patterned headwrap and is adorning him with a hand gesture. A red and green patterned parasol, a golden carved pillar and a golden lion sculpture fill the background.

Guru Purnima 2015 satsang scene in a decorated room. A seated man in a deep red turban, red robes and layered rudraksha malas with gold ornaments holds up a long white flower garland, while a grey-bearded devotee in orange robes and a white shawl kneels with folded hands before him. Behind them stand three men: one in white with glasses, one shaved-headed in white with a red bindi and tripundra marks, and one with long hair, white tilak and a bare upper body. Behind the seated figure are yellow and red marigold and flower decorations and a golden deity murti. A throne-like golden seat is visible.

A seated man on an ornate silver-and-red throne with a golden sunburst backdrop, wearing a rust-red turban with a crescent emblem, rust-red robe, a rudraksha mala and a large gold pendant, and a pink-and-white flower garland. He extends his right hand to touch the head of a bare-chested devotee kneeling before him with hands folded, the devotee's head covered with a white cloth. Behind them, a man in white dhoti stands with a hand on the devotee's shoulder, and two figures in saffron-orange robes stand at the sides, one holding a sacred trident-shaped staff. A woman in maroon sits to the right. Brass trident staffs and a plate of offerings flank the throne. The seated man is identifiable only as a figure in a ritual setting; no identification is made from appearance.

A seated man in a rust-red saffron-toned robe with a brown rudraksha-style mala draped over his shoulders sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a golden back panel and a gold staff beside him. He has a red bindi and a smile, and his bare feet rest on the red cushion. In front of him, a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with gold border kneels with palms joined in namaskara. Behind the throne, two women in rust-red and white saris wear beaded necklaces and stand on a red carpet, one holding a microphone, with green foliage behind. The scene resembles a formal darshan or padapuja setting. Appearance-based cues on the seated man (saffron robe, rudraksha mala, ceremonial throne) are present, but the image is not clear enough to confirm identity, so the seated man is described by role.

A bearded man seated on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, eyes closed, wearing a rust-orange robe, rudraksha-style beaded bracelets, and a long garland of red and white flowers with a yellow flower centrepiece around his neck; he has a white tilak on his forehead and holds the garland with both hands. Behind him, a younger man in orange robes and a long beaded necklace stands beside a golden trident staff, and an attendant in orange holds a brass tray at left. The stage has warm red and gold decor and blue spotlights. Swamiji (probable): the seated man shows long swept-back hair, a bearded face with a tilak, a rust-orange robe and ornate gold-and-beaded adornments on a throne, matching the page's claim that Swamiji is present.
