Outdoor photo on a dirt path beside a green hedge and dry grass. To the left, several men in white dhotis and shirts stand near a man holding a white cloth over the figure's head beneath a striped orange and multicolour umbrella with tassels reading DhyanaPeetam. One man on the left wears an orange shawl over his shoulder, and a bearded man in white wears a rudraksha mala. A framed picture on the far left shows a partial image.

Outdoor procession on a sandy path lined with palm trees under a clear blue sky. In the foreground a man with long dark hair wears a flowing orange robe and walks forward, smiling. Behind him, a man in white clothes holds up an orange umbrella with a tasselled canopy, and beside him another man in white wears an orange shawl over his shoulders and a rudraksha mala around his neck. Several figures in orange robes follow, a woman in lavender stands at left, and a woman in white stands nearby among potted plants and flower beds. Garlands hang from the umbrella area.

Outdoor procession on a dirt path beneath trees, with several colourful fringed umbrellas held aloft by men in white kurtas and white dhotis. Near the centre, a seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long hair and an orange head wrap sits on a chair beside a cane; a man wearing an orange shawl stands to one side and others in white attire and orange shawls surround him. Some people hold wooden poles and wear rudraksha-style beaded necklaces. The swami appearance in this scene is not clearly established by the visible cues, so this is recorded as uncertain.

Outdoor ceremony under a canopy strung with tassels, with palm trees and a thatched hut behind. A central figure with long swept-back hair, wearing saffron-orange robes with gold-bordered cloth and a gold necklace, sits on an orange-draped throne-like seat, probable Swamiji by these cues, with orange and gold draping. A monk in orange sits beside him holding a sheet of paper, and a microphone stands before them. On the right, a standing monk in orange wears a rudraksha mala and gold pendant, and a man in white with a yellow shawl stands near the seat. Behind them a white-clad attendant stands by a red-draped table with a brass bowl, fruit and flowers, and a camera on a tripod is at the left edge.
