A smiling man in a white shirt and white garland stands at left beside a woman in a purple sari holding a plate of bananas and a yellow fruit.

In the foreground a woman in a purple sari holds a small book and a yellow fruit. A computer monitor and other people stand in the background.

Photograph of two men indoors in a plain room with pale pink walls and a white bed or cot at right. A man in a light checked short-sleeved shirt and dark trousers stands bowed with his head lowered. Facing him, an older man with grey hair and glasses, wearing a white kurta and white dhoti with a dark beaded mala around his neck, presses his hand to the bowed man's head in a blessing gesture. The scene appears to show a personal blessing or darshan. A faint printed caption runs along the bottom edge of the photo, partly legible.

A photo of a devotional offering outside a house entrance with a tiled front step. A woman in a green and pink sari with gold bangles holds out a small brass or metal vessel with yellow flowers and a red flower up to a man in a cream kurta and white dhoti with a rudraksha-style mala, who reaches to receive it. Behind them, several women in orange and purple saris and a man in a light blue shirt stand near the open doorway, with shoes placed on the steps below. The man receiving the offering wears no visible crown, saffron robe or other distinctive a person cues, so no identity is asserted.

Photograph of two men walking through an indoor entrance at night, with a glass door and warm string lights in the background. The man in front, on the left, has long dark hair and wears a white kurta-style garment with embroidered trim and a white shawl draped over his arm. Beside and behind him, a man in a light blue striped button-up shirt and dark trousers carries a small dark object. The setting is a lobby or foyer with green foliage above the doorway.

A small indoor photograph of a ritual blessing. A young man in an orange-saffron top stands on the left, raising a silver-rimmed brass kalasha-style vessel with a green and gold top above a woman's head. In the center, a woman in a pale sari with a gold-trimmed border bows with her hands pressed together, while a man in a white shirt and light trousers leans in toward her. The room has light walls and a plain ceiling.

A photograph of an indoor room where a young man in an orange-saffron shirt places a large garland of white, yellow and red flowers over the head of a woman in a beige and gold saree. The woman bows with her head lowered and her face turned down, while the young man stands close behind her, reaching forward with both hands. A framed picture hangs on the pale wall behind them, and a doorway and a dark figure appear at the left edge. The scene suggests a garlanding or welcoming gesture in a domestic or ashram setting.
