Photograph of a festive ashram event under a red and gold canopy with golden ornamental decorations and a gilded dome-shaped shrine behind. In the foreground, a man in an orange turban, orange robes and a long gold necklace stands with palms pressed together in namaste, smiling and bowing slightly. Beside him, a man in white kurta with a red shawl has hands folded. Two shaven-headed monks in orange robes face each other nearby, and a man in white dhoti with a red-bordered shawl stands at right with a shaven head. Other orange-robed figures and onlookers fill the background, and a partially visible person in white stands at far left.

Photograph at an evening Hindu religious gathering on a stage with a painted backdrop. A man with long dark hair and an orange turban, wearing orange robes, stands with palms pressed together in greeting toward a bearded elderly sadhu seated in a gold-patterned armchair. The elderly man has a white beard, an orange turban, a red shawl with gold border and a garland, and holds an open booklet. Behind them, another bearded man in orange robes sits in a matching chair holding a white bag, and several saffron-robed men stand nearby, one holding a printed booklet. A figure in a red and gold costume holds a staff at right, and a young boy in white cloth speaks on a phone. The orange-clad figure with long hair and turban shows the cues associated with the probable identity, but the appearance is not clear enough to confirm it.

A photograph of a seated group at an outdoor stage event with a red curtain and white drape behind them. Three orange-robed sannyasis sit on a metal-framed bench: on the left a bald man with white-marked forehead and saffron shawl, in the centre a man in saffron robes with a maroon-and-gold headpiece and a beaded white mala, and on the right a young man in a bright orange turban and orange robe with long dark hair and a dark rudraksha mala, smiling and turned toward the centre. A man in white with a gold-bordered shawl sits at the far left beside a microphone, and additional audience members are visible in the background. Whether the young man in the orange turban is a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.

A photograph of a crowded ceremonial gathering with smoke or incense haze filling the air. In the centre, a man wearing an orange turban, an orange shawl over orange robes and a dark maroon garment on his shoulder is walking through the crowd with his head slightly bowed, and a microphone clip is visible at his collar. Around him, devotees in orange and saffron turbans and robes press close, one woman in the foreground with dark hair and gold ornaments holds her palms together in namaste. Other men in yellow and green garments stand behind, and a decorated ratha-like structure with a golden canopy appears in the background. Several people are visible, including partially visible figures at the edges.

Beside him, a bald man in orange robes and another man in orange sit partly visible, and at left an older man in white shirt and white trousers with glasses holds a small phone to his face. The background is a pale white draped backdrop.
