Outdoor photo on a sandy path beside palm trees and a small green structure. A bare-chested man in a rust-red wrap with yellow borders and a long rudraksha mala handshakes a man in a light grey-blue shirt and dark trousers. Around them stand a man in a white polo shirt, a bearded man in a white shirt, and a young man in a blue checked shirt and white trousers, with a vehicle behind. Several other people stand nearby in the background.

A crowd of men gathers closely outdoors on a dirt site. At centre, a man with long swept-back dark hair, a white tilak-like forehead mark and a red bindi wears a rust-red dhoti-style wrap and a large brown rudraksha mala, smiling with hands clasped. Beside him a man in a white kurta and white trousers smiles. At left, a man in a white shirt wears an orange and green bordered shawl and a red tilak. Behind them, men in white shirts, a checked shirt and dark clothing crowd in, and a man in a black shirt holds a phone. Several figures at left wear white and orange ritual cloths with white forehead markings. The scene looks like a visit or gathering, and the centre figure's cues are distinctive: long swept-back hair, a red-brown wrap and a large rudraksha mala. a person appears at centre as a visiting presence.

Outdoors under green trees, a bearded man in an orange-red saffron cloth and thick rudraksha mala with a gold pendant smiles broadly and presses his palms together while greeting people. He has a red mark on his forehead and white ash on his brow. Around him stand several men: one on the left with long dreadlocks, earrings and a shawl over his shoulder; one on the right with a white headband and a rudraksha mala; a man in a checked shirt behind; and a man in a white shirt on the right gesturing. A parked car and a thatched roof appear behind them.

A photograph of a crowd outdoors in front of a red brick building with a sign reading Nithyananda Vedic Arts University, and a small shrine with a deity murti visible through its doorway. A central man wears a rust-red saffron-toned dhoti and a wrap over the shoulder, a long rudraksha mala with large beads, and white-and-ochre tilak marks on his forehead; he has long swept-back dark hair and is smiling while clasping his hands. Around him stand men in white and striped shirts, a man in a white kurta, and onlookers in dark shirts, several with tilak marks and saffron-coloured wraps. A cameraperson with a large lens is in the lower right corner, and a vehicle is parked behind the group.

Outdoor photo on a dirt ground with parked white vehicles and a green water tank behind a crowd of men. In the foreground, a woman with hair in a bun, wearing an orange-red shawl over her shoulder and a rudraksha mala, is seen from behind with a red hair ornament. A man in a white kurta with folded hands faces her in greeting. Around them, men in checked shirts, white kurtas and a grey shirt stand close, one holding up a phone to record. A bald older man in a white dhoti-style garment and orange shawl stands at right with a mobile phone. The scene is a close, informal gathering on arrival or darshan.

Photograph of an arrival outside a building with a white car behind. A man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing a rust-orange saffron wrap and a thick red and white flower garland, smiles and raises a hand in greeting. Around him, several men in saffron-orange robes with rudraksha malas and forehead markings stand near, while a man in a striped red and white shirt and jeans stands at left and a man in grey shirt holds an orange-tipped pole at right. The central figure matches the page's Swamiji (probable) by his long hair, saffron wrap and garland.

Outdoor photo of a bearded man in a saffron-orange robe with a red tilak on his forehead, wearing layered rudraksha-style beaded malas and a gold pendant necklace, smiling and pressing his palms together in greeting. Around him, a shirtless man with long matted dreadlocks and gold earrings stands beside him, and a younger man with a white forehead marking and beaded malas smiles. A man in a striped shirt stands behind them, and a man in white pointing gestures at the right edge. Green trees, a small building and a parked car form the background. Whether the central figure is a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the identity is recorded as unsure.
