A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange-saffron robe and a dark rudraksha mala with a wooden-beaded necklace, smiling broadly while holding a small gold-coloured handbell or ritual bell in his raised right hand. A red draped cloth forms the backdrop, and a bald man in white sits partly visible at the left edge. The smiling robed man is a probable Swamiji: he has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beads. The bell and red backdrop suggest a satsang or puja setting.

A photograph of a seated man in orange saffron robes and a long rudraksha mala, sitting on an ornate gold-and-red throne decorated with a carved lion face. He has long dark hair and a tilak on his forehead, and he holds a brass and wooden ritual bell or hand implement while smiling toward a woman in a white top with dark curly hair seen from behind at left. A green potted plant and a white flower sit beside the throne, with a partly visible attendant in white behind. Probable Swamiji seated on the peetha during a darshan, with the orange robes, rudraksha mala and long hair as the qualifying cues.

A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold-carved throne with a red cushion, smiling and holding up a small gold-and-wood Tibetan prayer wheel in his right hand. He wears an orange-saffron shawl draped over one shoulder, long white and rudraksha malas, and a white tripundra with a red bindi on his forehead. A small headset microphone is attached to his face. Behind him are pink flowers and a pale backdrop. Probable Swamiji: the saffron robe, long swept-back hair, ornate gold throne and rudraksha malas match the page's description of a morning satsang where a prayer wheel was introduced for mantra practice.

He wears an orange-red top, an orange-saffron shawl over the shoulders, multiple long rudraksha mala necklaces, a white horizontal tilak with a red bindi on the forehead, and a small gold earring. He sits on a red velvet chair in front of a large ornate gold backdrop. Behind him is an enlarged portrait printed on a banner, showing a face wearing an orange turban with a red bindi.

A microphone on a stand stands to his left, and a blurred gold and orange background fills the rest of the frame.

A smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair and a small red bindi-style mark on his forehead sits in a golden-yellow armchair against a deep maroon curtain. He is wrapped in saffron-orange cloth draped over one shoulder and wears a beaded rudraksha-style mala with a gold clasp. He holds a silver microphone in his right hand and speaks, looking off to the side. A maroon cushion rests behind him. The appearance cues of long hair, saffron clothing and beaded mala are consistent with Swamiji (probable), seated and speaking as a discourse presenter.

Behind him, seated devotees in white and orange-red shawls sit in a hall; one man in white with a red scarf covers his face with his hand, and a water bottle sits in the foreground. Swamiji (probable) appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, seated as the central figure of a satsang.
