A photograph of a covered colonnaded walkway at a college campus. In the foreground, a man in an orange saffron robe with an orange turban and a long rudraksha mala walks forward smiling, with long dark hair swept back. Beside and behind him, a man in white dhoti and an orange shawl and a man in white kurta and trousers walk along, and an older woman in a green sari with glasses and a shoulder bag follows. Pale tiled floor, cream buildings and green lawn are visible. The orange-robed figure has distinctive saffron clothing, turban and mala, so this is a probable appearance-based match for a person in person, though uncertain. Persons are described by role and clothing only.

A photograph of a long, pale white corridor with arched windows at a college building. A central figure in an orange saffron wrap and orange robe, with a matching orange head turban and long hair, walks barefoot down the tiled floor, flanked by several men. Around him, men wear white kurtas and white dhotis with orange shawls draped over their shoulders, and one man in a white shirt and light trousers with a lanyard walks beside them. Two men in white are visible at the rear of the group. The setting suggests a walk between sessions.

A photograph of a covered colonnaded walkway with white pillars and grey tiled floor, with potted plants and a yellow bus visible beyond. A group walks toward the camera. In the centre, a barefoot figure in flowing saffron-orange robes wears a long rudraksha mala and has long dark hair, with a man in orange beside them. A man in a white shirt and dark trousers in the foreground gestures with both hands. Other people in orange and white robes follow behind.

A photograph taken in a tiled corridor of a light-coloured institutional building with an open courtyard and greenery beyond. A figure in a saffron-orange robe and matching orange head wrap walks on the left, wearing a dark wooden rudraksha mala and sandals, one hand raised in greeting. Beside him, a person in white ritual clothing carries an orange cloth. On the right, a man in a white shirt and white trousers walks toward them, and a woman in a green patterned sari is partly visible at the edge. Another person in white stands farther back near the left wall.

Photograph of a group walking through a doorway in a plain interior. A long-haired man in a saffron-orange robe with a rudraksha mala and red markings on his chest, smiling and gesturing with his hand, is at centre. Beside him a man in white shirt and dhoti walks in the foreground. Behind them men in white dhotis and shirts, one wearing an orange shawl, follow, and a man at left holds a garland of yellow and pink flowers. A woven mat lies on the floor at bottom, and a printed notice is pinned to the wall at right. Swamiji (probable) is the long-haired man in the orange robe, identified by his long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala; he is in person.

A photograph of four men walking along a bright white corridor with grey tiled floor, potted plants and a window grille on the left. The man in the centre wears an orange saffron shawl over his body, a gold-toned ornate necklace with a large pendant, and a red-orange bindi on his forehead; he has short dark hair and walks barefoot-style in sandals. Beside him on the left, a younger man in orange robes with a red-bordered cloth walks smiling. Behind them, a man in white shirt and white dhoti holds a small silver vessel, and an older man in white shirt and dhoti with a rudraksha-style mala carries a small silver cup. Potted palms and a wall-mounted sign line the corridor.

A photograph in a white-walled corridor of a modern building with black metal railings and a grey-and-yellow tiled floor. A figure with long dark hair in a saffron-orange shawl and orange garment walks barefoot, gesturing with one hand while speaking. Beside them a man in a white short-sleeved shirt and white dhoti walks barefoot. Behind them another person in orange carries a folder. On the left, a person in white with a yellow shawl stands near the staircase, with two other people in the background, one in a striped shirt on the stairs. Through the right-side opening a courtyard shows potted palms and gravel paving.

A photograph of people walking along a covered colonnade with carved stone pillars and white walls in an old palace. In the foreground on the right, a man with long dark hair, wearing a saffron-orange robe draped over one shoulder, a rudraksha mala around his neck, and barefoot, walks with hands folded at his waist. Behind him to the left, three men and a woman in white ritual clothes walk together; two of the men wear orange shawls and one carries a lanyard badge. Dark wooden doors and windows line the wall. The scene resembles a formal palace visit.

A photograph of a white-walled corridor with arched windows and pale tiled floor. A central figure in an orange saffron robe, orange turban and long dark hair walks barefoot beside several men. Two men on the left wear white kurtas with orange shawls and a bearded man in white has a long dark mane and rudraksha-style pendant; a man in a cream shirt and trousers with a beaded necklace walks at right; a man in white with an orange shawl walks behind. Several people are present in total, and the figure in the orange robe is possibly the ashram's a person, though the appearance is uncertain.
