Night outdoor gathering at an ashram-style grounds with bright floodlights and a large crowd of devotees in white shirts, dhotis and colourful saris. A bald man in a pinkish-orange kurta with a gold-coloured border stands at centre, looking toward the crowd. A woman with a long grey braid in an orange-yellow sari is in the foreground, and a white van with an orange flag stands in the background near a blue barrier. Trees and lamp posts frame the scene.

Dense night crowd of devotees filling a temple-area gathering, lit by bright white lights and strings of lights overhead. Most people wear white dhotis, shirts and sarees, with some in red, maroon and pink. A man in front in a white shirt and cream shawl stands with folded arms, while a woman in a white saree holds a small object near the front. Garlands and decorative strings hang at the upper left, and an older bearded man in white stands among the crowd. Many people are partially visible at the frame edges, with people filling the background.

A photograph of a large seated audience outdoors under trees and a light sky, viewed from behind rows of attendees. Many people sit close together, several wearing glasses, colourful kurtas and salwar outfits in greens, blues and purples, and white ritual-style clothing. A woman in a white and gold sari stands at the upper right near a small wooden stand, and a red and yellow flag hangs on a line in the background. Some attendees have their hands folded in greeting. No clearly identifiable central figure is visible.

A night-time outdoor gathering of a large crowd seated in white plastic chairs, facing toward an unseen stage. Women in saris and salwar in pink, red, teal, purple and blue dominate the foreground, several with flowers in their hair and gold earrings; one woman wears a red-and-white striped head wrap. Men in white shirts and dhotis stand at the back among palm trees, with string lights overhead. Faces are attentive, some with hands pressed together in prayer.

A large nighttime outdoor gathering of devotees seated closely together on the ground, filling the frame from front to back. Most wear white shirts and dhotis or saris in orange, yellow, pink and red, and several older women wear gold necklaces. One man at left raises his hand. Bright floodlights and strings of red lights hang above, with striped bunting strung across the background of the venue.

Outdoor gathering under a thatched palm-leaf pavilion with bamboo posts, where a large crowd of devotees in mostly white shirts and dhotis, some in saffron and blue saris, fills the space. On the left foreground, a figure in an orange-saffron turban and orange robe sits on a white-draped seat, with a camera operator visible at the top left edge. Devotees in the foreground press palms together, and a striped decorative pillar wrapped in colourful cloth stands among the crowd. Palms and banana trees frame the background. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with a saffron-clad turbaned presenter, but the identity is uncertain from appearance alone.
