A seated man speaks into a microphone on an ornate gold throne with a carved arched back. He wears an orange saffron robe with an orange-red silk shawl, a long garland of yellow and red flowers with green leaves draped across his chest, and a white vibhuti marking with a red kumkum dot on his forehead. His hands are folded in his lap. Behind him a large pink and white draped backdrop displays a framed portrait garlanded with flowers. Red cushions flank the throne. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robes, flower garland and ornate gold throne, presiding as a speaker at a satsang talk.

A man in orange saffron robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions and gold trident finials, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears a long gold bead necklace over the orange garment, a red bindi on his forehead, and has long dark hair swept back. His right hand is raised in a gesture while his left rests in his lap. Behind him hang large garlands of orange, yellow, pink, green and white flowers, with a jewelled necklace and a purple and gold draped cloth. Flower petals lie at the base of the throne. Swamiji (probable): the orange robes, long hair, gold beads and ornate throne match the page's satsang context, a discourse seated on a peetha.

A seated man with long dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead sits before a backdrop densely decorated with white jasmine, yellow and red marigold garlands. He wears an orange saffron garment with a gold border and a heavy gold bead necklace with a pendant, and a thick white-and-maroon flower garland drapes his shoulders. His hands rest on his knees and he gazes upward. In the foreground are fruits including oranges and pomegranates, a small oil lamp, a shell-shaped vessel and metal plates. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and gold necklace.

A long-haired man in saffron-orange robes sits on an orange throne-like chair, smiling, with a red bindi on his forehead. He wears layered garlands of white jasmine and red flowers with green leaves draped over his shoulders and chest. Behind him stands a large golden structure and a gold-and-yellow draped deity murti with a kalasha-like finial. A man in white kneels at the lower left, bowing his head toward the garland. A blue book and a small brass bowl sit on the ledge at left, and a second saffron-clad figure is partly visible behind. The setting appears to be a temple or ashram darshan with garlanding and honour.
