Photograph in an indoor hall with pale blue walls and a concrete floor. Centre, a barefoot man with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi wears a loose orange saffron wrap, a long rudraksha mala and carries a tall braided wooden staff with a gold-coloured top. Behind him to the right, a bearded man in white ritual dress with an orange shawl and beaded mala stands with hands clasped. Further right, another man wears white with an orange shawl and a gold necklace. A large old balance scale stands at left. The orange-clad man has distinctive long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha cues, consistent with the a person candidate, but the face is not clearly confirmed in this context. Visible people: four.

A photograph in a hall with a concrete floor and exposed metal roof trusses. A man with long, curly dark hair wears an orange saffron wrap draped over one shoulder and a dark rudraksha mala around his neck, and he holds a braided brown wooden staff with a gold-coloured handle while looking down and smiling. Beside him on a striped mat are an assortment of gold-coloured ritual objects and figurines. In the background a woman in a white sari with an orange shawl stands near glass display cabinets, and another person in white is partly visible at the left edge.
