A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on a red-cushioned throne in front of an ornate gold-framed backdrop decorated with bright flower garlands in yellow, orange, red and purple.

A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne decorated with flower garlands. The central figure wears saffron-orange robes, a long white and red flower garland, and a rudraksha-style necklace, and smiles broadly. A man in a white shirt and dark trousers leans forward to offer something to him, while a woman in a white sari with yellow border, a man in orange, and an elderly man in white with an orange shawl stand nearby. Floral arches and marigold-style flowers frame the scene.

A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork and a red cushion, smiling as a man in a white shirt and white dhoti drapes him with a long garland of white, pink and red flowers. On the left, two men in white clothes stand near a stack of books and a silver tray holding petals; one wears a rudraksha mala. On the right, a man in orange robes with a wrap stands with hands joined in greeting. The setting is a plain cream-walled room. The seated figure has long swept-back hair and distinctive saffron robes, rudraksha and a garland, consistent with the Swamiji (probable) candidate, presented as being honoured on a throne.

A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, wearing an orange robe and a white and red flower garland, smiling, with a long swept-back hairstyle and a gold necklace. A young man in white kurta with a yellow shawl stands at left, leaning in, and a woman with long blonde hair in a white shawl is at right, her hands raised in greeting. A bearded man in orange robes holding a brass vessel stands at far right. The throne is framed by yellow and red flower arrangements and a gold-trimmed canopy. a person seated on the throne, wearing an orange robe, rudraksha-style neck garland and gold necklace.

A seated figure in an orange-red turban and orange robe, wearing a multicoloured floral garland with green, white, red and orange blooms and a blue-and-red bead garland, sits on a red tiger-striped cushion before a gold throne. He smiles and extends his right hand toward a young boy kneeling on the right, who wears a white dhoti with gold border, a rudraksha mala and white tripundra on his forehead, and holds a small object while a brass plate with a tray sits on the red cloth. A standing young attendant in a white dhoti with gold border, rudraksha beads and a white forehead mark watches at right. Behind them a banana plant, a painted pillar with floral and bird motifs, and a seated crowd fill the dim hall. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears a saffron turban and orange robe with a flower garland, seated on a gold throne.

A photograph of a seated man in orange saffron robes and a white jasmine garland with a green-and-yellow tassel on a large ornate gold throne with a red velvet backrest and carved lion figures. A man in a white kurta places a hand on his shoulder and garland, while a second man in orange robes stands at left with palms pressed together in anjali. Behind them hang a patterned red-and-cream cloth and a yellow striped curtain, and books and a tablet sit on a side table at right. a person: the seated man on the throne wears saffron robes and a jasmine garland, a ceremonial welcome cue; the appearance is consistent but not decisive.
