A seated man in an orange-and-gold robe with a rudraksha mala around his neck sits at the lower left, back partly turned, beside a banana leaf and metal vessels. A woman in a white sari with red-and-brown shawl and rudraksha beads stands at centre, holding up a handful of cooked food over a leaf plate, as other white-clad devotees with red shawls and an attendant with a white cap prepare food nearby. Several people in white and red attire, some holding trays, sit or stand in a hall. The seated man has long hair in a bun and a bare upper body wrapped in orange cloth, with distinctive rudraksha adornments; this is a candidate-appearance match.

Photograph of a seated ritual gathering in a large hall. Several devotees in orange and saffron clothing with rudraksha malas sit on the floor behind lit oil lamps. In the foreground, a woman in a white blouse and white sari with a red border, wearing glasses and a red bindi, holds a small lit lamp on a brass plate. Beside her, a man in white kurta with a red shawl holds another lit lamp, and a man in glasses with a red shawl follows with a lamp. A woman in white with a red shawl also holds a lamp. Trays of food offerings sit on green leaves near the front. A saffron cloth with printed text lies on the floor. A bald monk's head is partly visible at the bottom edge.

Evening outdoor gathering of devotees in white and saffron-red clothing with rudraksha malas. In the centre a woman in a deep rust-red sari with a rudraksha mala and a small metal vessel in her hands bows forward toward seated figures. Around her, men in white kurtas and ochre-orange wraps stand with heads bowed, some with wrist bangles and watches. A bald man in a white garment sits in the lower left, and a seated man in a white shirt with a rudraksha mala is in the foreground. The scene appears to be a ceremonial or satsang setting at night, with dark foliage behind.

A photograph of a seated devotional gathering on a white floor, with many people holding small lit oil lamps in cupped hands. In the foreground, a bald man in white clothes with an orange-red shawl and glasses holds a lamp, and beside him a woman in a white sari with an orange-red shawl offers a lamp with raised hands. A woman with a red forehead mark and a white top with an orange shawl also holds a flame. Behind them, monks in saffron-orange robes sit with palms pressed together, and a green cloth with cups and bottles lies at the right. a person is not clearly visible among those pictured, so no candidate is identified.

A photograph of a seated figure in a maroon-red robe with a wide gold border and long rudraksha mala necklaces, with yellow sandalwood paste on the forehead and a red bindi, smiling while holding a small brass vessel. Beside them a shaved-headed man in maroon robes and rudraksha bead bracelets bows with hands on a large brass plate heaped with red-brown material, as a woman in white on the left touches his head. Behind, devotees in white clothes and red shawls with orange lanyard badges stand with hands folded, a few with yellow paste on their foreheads, in what appears to be a ritual sitting. The setting is an indoor hall with red cushioned seating. Several people are visible in the scene. The seated figure's appearance is not clearly distinctive enough to be confirmed as a person, so the identity is unsure.
