A photograph inside an orange-draped tent with a pink and magenta fabric valance overhead. A man with long dark hair and a full beard sits cross-legged on a dark patterned cushioned seat, wearing a white t-shirt and yellow dhoti-style cloth, and holds a sheet of paper or clipboard. A red and gold embroidered parasol stands beside him. A woman in a pink floral sari stands nearby holding a small card. Two women with their backs turned wear orange saris with gold borders, and a man in white sits on a red carpet at the right, with a water bottle at his feet. An older woman is partly visible at the left edge.

A photograph inside an orange-and-magenta draped tent. A bearded man with long hair, wearing a white top and yellow dhoti, sits cross-legged on a dark patterned cushioned couch beneath an ornate red and gold parasol. Four women stand in front of him: two in orange saris with gold borders, one in a white sari and one in a pink-and-purple sari. A man in white shirt and white dhoti sits on a red floor cushion at right, and a water bottle and cooler sit on the floor. Shows a seated audience and darshan-style meeting. The seated bearded figure is an appearance-based probable candidate with long hair, white clothing and a distinctive parasol setting, presented as a seated teacher receiving visitors.

Outdoor ceremony under a canopy strung with tassels, with palm trees and a thatched hut behind. A central figure with long swept-back hair, wearing saffron-orange robes with gold-bordered cloth and a gold necklace, sits on an orange-draped throne-like seat, probable Swamiji by these cues, with orange and gold draping. A monk in orange sits beside him holding a sheet of paper, and a microphone stands before them. On the right, a standing monk in orange wears a rudraksha mala and gold pendant, and a man in white with a yellow shawl stands near the seat. Behind them a white-clad attendant stands by a red-draped table with a brass bowl, fruit and flowers, and a camera on a tripod is at the left edge.

Outdoor ceremony under a pink and white canopy with red drapes and floral garlands. A man seated on a gold-trimmed throne wears a red turban with a jewelled ornament, orange robes, a long gold-and-bead necklace, and his long hair falls past his shoulders; his hand reaches toward a bowed head in the foreground. Beside him a man in white dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala stands, and behind are two people in orange robes with garlands, one a woman. Several people are visible; the foreground figure's head is partly cropped.

A photograph inside a room with yellow-and-white striped curtains and a pale green wall. A long-haired figure in an orange robe and a dark rudraksha mala sits on a large red velvet throne-like chair, holding a folded white paper and reading it. A woman in an orange blouse and white sari bends forward with her palms pressed together, and a man in white with glasses bows in front of the seated figure. A woman in a yellow-and-white top stands behind them, and a man in an orange robe stands at right. Brass items lie on the cushion beside the seated figure. The page labels this as a Bhagavad-Gita Satsang House visit, and the seated figure's appearance and orange and rudraksha attire are consistent with a person, seated on the throne as the person receiving devotees.

Inside a large orange and white tent with a yellow canopy above, a bearded man in orange robes and a shawl stands behind a seated older woman in an orange shawl, her head bowed with a white forehead mark and a flower crown. He rests both hands on her shoulders. Beside them, an elderly man in pink robes and rudraksha beads sits watching, a man in orange stands at right with arms folded, and a mobile phone is raised at left. Two attendants in white dhoti-style cloth stand near a yellow umbrella in the background.

A photograph inside a tent with colourful geometric patterned hangings in purple, green, pink and blue. A long-haired figure in an orange saffron robe, wearing a pink flower garland and a red tilak on the forehead, sits on an orange cushion and extends a hand toward a kneeling older woman in a teal and orange silk sari with a white flower in her hair. She leans forward with hands folded. Around them, standing people in white clothes: a young man in white with a yellow scarf at left, a woman in white in the foreground, an older man in white with glasses and a beaded necklace, and a young woman in a white dress. Pink and red flower petals and a metal plate with offerings sit on the floor, and a small oil lamp is visible near the seat. The setting appears to be a satsang or darshan gathering.
