A large hall where many devotees in orange robes and rudraksha malas sit cross-legged in long rows on the floor, many with hands pressed in anjali, before rows of leaf plates holding food and steel cups. A bearded figure in orange robes sits on an elevated seat at the upper right, above the crowd, and a screen shows another figure in white. Several people in white clothing sit on the right side among the devotees. Red curtains and framed pictures decorate the walls, and steel containers stand at the left.

A long row of women in orange saffron robes sits cross-legged on mats along a white tiled hall, many with palms pressed together in namaskar. The foreground woman, with hair in a bun and a rudraksha mala around her neck, keeps her eyes closed. Before the row are brass and steel cups and banana leaves heaped with food. Blurred figures in the background and the distant crowd suggest a large gathering.

A large hall with rows of women in orange and rust-coloured saris sit cross-legged on white mats before banana leaves laid with food, bowls and tumblers. Many have rudraksha malas, bangles, and vibhuti or tilak on their foreheads, and several have hands pressed together in namaskar or are eating. In the background stand golden deity murtis and a golden elephant figure, with a few white-clad people further back. The scene resembles a communal meal (annadan) in an ashram hall. No a person candidate is visible.

In the background, men in white dhotis and white head coverings stand near a serving counter, and a robed attendant in white with a red shawl stands at left near a brass vessel and flowers.
