A seated figure in an orange-saffron robe sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-like armrests and a red cushioned seat, hands pressed together in greeting. Three standing men attend: one in a white shirt and dark trousers with palms joined, one in a dark patterned shirt with hands folded, and one in orange robes holding a folder. The tent-like pavilion has orange cloth, a red-patterned carpet, a microphone on a stand, a side table with books and a small offering, and red flower petals scattered on the floor.

Three people stand before the throne on a red-and-blue patterned carpet: a man in a white shirt and dark trousers with hands folded, a man in a dark shiny shirt with hands together, and a woman in an orange sari holding a small notebook. Rose petals lie on the carpet, and a small table holds offerings and books. A microphone stands at the right under a tent-like canopy.

Inside a tented pavilion, a man with long dark hair wearing an orange robe sits on an ornate gilded throne with a red cushioned back and carved lion-armrests, smiling and holding a microphone on a stand. Before him, two people kneel: one in white clothes with a yellow shawl holds a blue-covered booklet, and another in orange robes with dark hair kneels at the throne's side. A bald man in orange robes stands at left holding papers beside a fan. Stacks of orange-and-black books sit on a side table at right, and a red-and-gold canopy hangs above. Red and gold drapery and a carved pillar graphic decorate the back wall.

A man in a white shirt kneels on a rug scattered with red petals, bowing his head onto the feet of a seated figure in orange robes on an ornate gold throne with carved lions and a red cushion. Another man in dark shirt and trousers stands with hands pressed together, and a figure in orange robes holding a folder stands behind at left. A bottle and small items sit on a wooden table beside the throne, and a microphone stands at right.

A woman in an orange sleeveless top and orange skirt sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions and a carved gold lion armrest, decorated with white jasmine garlands and a multicoloured flower garland. An older man in white shirt and white dhoti bows forward with folded hands and touches his head to her hand, which rests on his head in blessing. Behind them a man in orange robe with a red sash stands, a man in a white shirt stands nearby, and other men in white clothing stand in the background near red curtains. Flower petals are scattered on the white stage, with a potted floral arrangement and a speaker at the edge.

A photograph of a seated man in a saffron/orange robe on an ornate golden throne with red cushioning, wearing a white flower garland, smiling. A man in a white shirt and black trousers stands before him, placing a hand on his shoulder during a pada-puja-style honouring; a second person in orange robes stands at the left edge. Yellow curtains, a golden lion-figure at the throne base, a tray of fruit and flowers, and a small table with books are visible. The seated man's long swept-back hair and saffron robe match the appearance cues, so he is labelled Swamiji (probable) as the honoured figure on the throne.

A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, draped in saffron-orange robes and smiling. The throne is decorated with marigold and rose garlands and sits before a red and gold patterned backdrop. Two men in casual shirts stand at left, one offering a small object with both hands toward the seated figure. A second saffron-robed attendant stands at right holding a white cloth or paper. The setting resembles a padha pooja, a ritual of honouring feet. The seated man shows appearance cues of long swept-back hair and saffron robes, so he is a probable Swamiji candidate.
