A domestic room with a brown leather sofa and yellow-and-white checked curtains. A man in saffron robes with a large orange turban, long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and orange shawl sits on the sofa holding a small booklet. A man in white shirt and dark trousers kneels before him with hands joined in prayer, while a woman in orange and white sari kneels beside him. Standing devotees in white shirts, a checked shirt and a blue sari watch with hands folded; some wear rudraksha malas. A framed deity image hangs on the left wall. The orange-robed figure shows distinctive saffron clothing, turban and long hair, so the appearance is a probable Swamiji candidate receiving devotees; it is an in-person photograph.

A man in an orange robe, orange head wrap and rudraksha mala sits on a brown leather sofa with long dark hair and a bare chest visible, and appears to be the seated central figure. A man in a white shirt bends low to touch the feet of the seated figure while an older man in a grey shirt and rudraksha mala sits beside him with a hand resting on the sofa. Other men stand around in white shirts, a lavender checked shirt and a woman in a peach sari with long hair, one wearing rudraksha; a man with glasses and a rudraksha mala stands at left.

A bearded man with a bare chest and orange cloth draped over his lower body sits on a brown leather sofa, writing on a small paper, while beside him a younger figure in an orange robe and orange turban sits with hands folded. Two people in white and yellow prostrate on the floor in front, and six standing people in white shirts, white and red saris and a blue sari watch. The swami is a person candidate: long swept-back hair and a saffron turban with orange clothing, a ceremonial role shown seated, appearance uncertain, so unsure. Seven or more standing or seated people visible.2006-11-24November 24 20062006-11-24Indoor photo of a group of devotees in a room with yellow-checked curtains and a wall clock. A seated figure on a brown leather sofa wears a saffron-orange turban, saffron-orange robe and a rudraksha-style mala, hands pressed together in namaste. A man in a white shirt kneels before the sofa with hands folded, while others stand around with palms joined, one man in a checked shirt and a woman in an orange-and-cream sari with beaded necklace among them. A man in white clothing stands at the left edge. Appearance cues of the seated figure are distinctive, but the figure is not confidently identifiable from the image alone, so the role is given as a sannyasi seated on the sofa receiving devotees.2006-11-24
