Indoor event photo with a seated long-haired man in an orange-saffron shawl over his bare upper body, a red bindi on his forehead, holding a wooden staff upright. He sits on a white cushioned seat in front of a draped pink-and-red curtain and a large white circular backdrop. Before him, a woman in a white saree with a gold border sits with her back to the camera, and several women in orange shawls sit or stand nearby. On the left, an older bald man in white kurta with an orange shawl stands beside the seat holding papers. A gold-tipped staff rests at the left edge. Several other people in orange and white are visible at the edges. Probable Swamiji's appearance cues include long swept-back hair, saffron shawl and rudraksha-style presence, seated centrally as the teacher.

April 04 20082008-04-04April 04 20082008-04-04Photograph of a seated figure in orange robes with long dark hair on a large white throne-like chair, extending a hand toward a tray of offerings and food in the foreground. Around them, devotees in white and orange clothing, including a man in orange with a saffron shawl and an attendant in white with an orange scarf, press close while others sit or stand in a crowded hall with red curtains. Several people in the crowd fold hands or receive blessings, and a tray of sweets and fruit lies on the white seat. The setting appears to be a satsang or darshan gathering. The seated figure's long hair and saffron robes are distinctive, but identity is uncertain from appearance alone.2008-03-26March 26 20082008-03-26A photograph of a man in a saffron-orange robe with a gold-coloured pendant on a heavy beaded necklace, seated and smiling as he speaks with two people in white clothes in the foreground. He wears a small red bindi and his long dark hair is pulled back. A large white curved backdrop and dark surroundings suggest a gathering or satsang. The people beside him in white are seated close, one turned toward him with their back to the camera, another partly visible on the right. Appearance cues here (long hair, saffron robe, ornate gold necklace) are consistent with the page's claim, so this is a person candidate.2008-06-20Photo of a crowded devotional gathering in an indoor hall with white draped tables. A man with long dark swept-back hair and an orange sleeveless top stands at right, reaching out his hand toward the head of a seated woman in a pink and white sari. Behind him a shaved-headed man in orange robes holds a small stack of papers. Nearby, a man in an orange robe and a woman in a white sari stand. On the foreground table sit a tray of rudraksha malas, a plate of fruit and flower garlands, and a folded blue cloth. Surrounding devotees in white kurtas, green and white saris, and a braided woman in white stand close together. The probable identity cue is the orange clothing and long hair of the man giving blessings, consistent with the page's a person reference, and the scene reads as darshan with blessings.2008-03-26March 28 20082008-03-28March 26 20082008-03-26March 28 20082008-03-28A seated figure in an orange robe and a multicoloured floral garland sits on a white throne-like chair as a crowd presses in around her. Devotees with folded hands and palms joined in greeting stand close, including a man in a grey shirt holding her hand and a woman in a yellow shawl behind. Nearby stands a tray of rudraksha malas, fruit and sweets, and a bowl. Orange-clad and white-clad devotees fill the room. Whether the seated figure is the a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the identity is left unsure.2008-03-26Photograph of a seated figure in an orange saffron top and white dhoti on a white throne-like seat, receiving devotees during a darshan.
