A photograph taken under a open-sided thatched shelter with a metal frame. A figure seen from behind, with long dark hair and a bare upper body wrapped in an orange shawl, faces a group of about a dozen smiling people. Most are in white ritual clothing with orange shawls, and several wear rudraksha malas. A woman in the centre wears a white sari with a gold border and is gesturing with her hands. A microphone stands in the lower right corner, and a small table with a basket and bowls sits at the right edge.

A photo of a bare, tiled interior room with white wall shelves, a ceiling fan and a window. A group of about a dozen men stands in conversation. Several wear white dhotis and white shirts; a few wear white kurtas with orange shawls. In the centre, a smiling man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands barefoot facing a long-haired man in a saffron-orange robe with a red undergarment who gestures with both hands. Beside them a bearded man in saffron robes and a rudraksha mala stands, and at right a young man in saffron clothing with long hair holds his hands together.

A photograph taken indoors in a plain whitewashed hall with a metal-framed roof and an open doorway. A group of about fifteen men in saffron and orange robes stand in a loose semicircle, several with rudraksha malas and beards. In the centre, a man with long dark swept-back hair wears an orange robe and a rudraksha mala and stands with hands folded, appearing to address the group; the appearance is consistent with the a person candidate described on the page, but it is uncertain. To the left, a man in a white dhoti and white kurta with a saffron shawl and a mala holds a pink folder. Older men in white and a man in a maroon shirt stand at the right edge. A small framed picture hangs on the upper left wall.

A photograph of an indoor room with a tiled floor where a man in an orange saffron robe and orange dhoti with a red border stands barefoot at centre with palms pressed together in namaste. He has long dark hair, a beard and a rudraksha-style bead necklace. Behind him a line of people in white kurta and dhoti or white salwar clothing, several wearing orange lanyards with ID cards and small tricolour badges, stand barefoot with hands folded. A woman in white stands at right of the group. A man in an orange shirt and dark trousers stands arms crossed by the wall at right. A doorway and window with a wire mesh grille are behind them.

A photograph taken indoors in a plain white-walled hall with ceiling fans and a metal-framed window. A figure in orange ochre robes sits cross-legged on a red cloth at left, gesturing with one hand toward a standing group. Behind him, a shaved-headed attendant in orange robes holds a silver tray of fruit and offerings. Around them, about a dozen men in white dhotis and white shirts stand in a loose circle, several with hands clasped or arms folded, one holding fruit. Visible props include oranges, a water bottle and a small bowl at lower left. The seated figure has long hair tied back and a crown-like appearance is absent; he is described only by his role as a seated teacher in orange robes.
