An older woman in a cream sari with a red border stands behind them with her hands raised, and a man in an orange shawl and a young man in a yellow cloth stand nearby, with onlookers in white and green at the back. The setting is an interior with white-framed windows and a sculpture at the left edge. Visible cues for the seated man include saffron clothing, long hair and a garland, so the appearance-based label applies, and his role is that of the person receiving an offering.2010-02-17December 21 20112011-12-21A photograph of a house visit in a bright marble-floored room. A long-haired figure in an orange saffron robe and a white flower garland sits on a low seat, raising both hands in a gesture of blessing toward devotees.

Seated beside them, a woman in a green sari and a man with a bare chest and sacred thread sit on the floor holding fruit. Behind them, standing devotees include a woman in a mustard sari and a woman in blue, a man in white dhoti with a tilak, and young men in white robes with yellow shawls and orange wraps. A framed painting of Hindu deities hangs on the wall. A tray of bananas and fruit sits in the foreground, and a white floral rangoli is visible on the floor. a person appears as the figure in orange with the long hair and garland, presented as the figure being honoured; he is seated and blessing.2010-02-18September 10 20152015-09-10 +1 copiesA satsang in a gilded hall with a leopard-print throne. A bearded man with long swept-back hair, a golden crown, an orange shawl and a rudraksha mala sits elevated on the ornate throne, appearing to be a person (appearance-based candidate) addressing the group. Around him, seated on a striped cloth, devotees in orange and white garments with malas listen attentively; a shirtless young man in white dhoti sits with hands folded, and a person holds a microphone. A cameraman operates a tripod-mounted camera behind a red curtain, and a golden deity murti stands near the railing.2017-10-12July 19 20152015-07-19October 18 20102010-10-18 +1 copies
