A barefoot man with long, swept-back dark hair and a red bindi walks with eyes closed across a bare concrete floor in a hall with pale pink walls. He wears a flowing saffron-orange sleeveless robe wrapped over one shoulder and draped to the ankles, with fists loosely clenched at his sides. Behind him, several participants in white clothes sit on mats with white blindfolds or eye bands, some with hands folded. The man has distinctive long hair, saffron robe and bindi cues consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji; appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), in person.

A barefoot man with long dark wavy hair and a red bindi walks across a bare grey floor in a hall, wearing a sleeveless saffron-orange cloth draped over his shoulder and body, with eyes lowered. Behind him, several seated people wear white blindfolds across their eyes and sit on orange mats; one woman in a purple-and-grey sari sits to the left. Tall decorated pillars with red, yellow, blue and orange patterns and orange tassels hang at the sides, and scaffolding and a white ceiling drape are visible. Swamiji (probable): the walking man has long swept-back hair, a bindi and saffron clothing, which are the qualifying cues for this candidate, and he is the central figure in the frame.

A barefoot man with long, swept-back black hair and a red bindi walks through a hall, eyes lowered, wearing a flowing bright orange sleeveless wrap over an orange garment. He holds a gold ornate ceremonial staff in his right hand and gathers his robe with the other. Behind him, seated devotees in white headbands and white clothing, some in pink and orange saris, fill the floor, with orange tassel hangings and a dark screen on the wall. The man matches the presentation cues of a person, with long hair, saffron clothing and a ceremonial gold staff, and is walking in a satsang-style gathering.

A man with long dark hair, a red forehead mark, wearing a sleeveless saffron-orange draped robe, walks barefoot down a green carpeted aisle toward the camera. Seated on both sides of the aisle are rows of people wearing white cloth blindfolds tied over their eyes, some in white and some in checked shirts. A pale doorway glows in the dark background wall.

A man with long dark hair swept back, wearing a flowing saffron-orange robe draped over one shoulder and wrapped around the body, walks forward through a hall in front of rows of seated people. Behind him, many participants sit on the floor with white blindfolds or eye bands tied over their eyes, several with hands folded in anjali, some in white and pastel saris. A few people stand at the back of the hall beside pale walls and doorways. The orange-robed man's distinctive long hair and saffron clothing are visible cues for the page-referenced Swamiji, so the label is probable. The scene suggests a satsang or meditation session with blindfolded participants.
