In the centre, a figure in orange robes with a long-draped orange shawl and a hair style swept back, with a visible red-trimmed orange garment, stands facing an older man in white with a shaved head and a light-coloured wrap, who gestures with raised hand. Around them, men in white shirts and dhotis, a man in a grey shirt and jeans, and a woman in a yellow sari stand on a green mat. A kalasha-like cabinet display and jewellery cases fill the background. The orange-robed central figure matches appearance cues that are distinctive but not conclusive, so identity is left uncertain and roles are given instead.2009-12-20A seated audience of roughly 40 people in white clothes fills a tiled hall in front of glass display cabinets holding deity images and ritual objects. A figure in orange robes stands at the right, holding a microphone and gesturing toward the audience, with a white chair and an orange cloth nearby. A black sign with white lettering reads 'Things Used by Paramahamsa' above the cabinets. Several attendees wear yellow or saffron-coloured garlands. The scene resembles a satsang or teaching session in an ashram exhibition room.2010-02-09Photograph inside a long, open-sided hall with a corrugated metal roof and white walls, lined with wooden book racks and glass display cases. A group of young girls in blue and green salwar outfits stands on the left, while a crowd of adults and children gathers in the centre-right. A man in a white dhoti and white kurta, wearing a long rudraksha mala, stands near the centre with a bearded man in white beside him. Nearby, a figure in an orange-saffron top and a white garment with a gold necklace stands among the group. Framed saffron-robed portraits and posters hang on the wall behind them.2008-10-27August 09 20072007-08-09Photograph inside a plain hall with a corrugated metal roof and a display cabinet of silver and brass ritual objects. Several saffron-robed sannyasis stand in a line facing the cabinet. A bare-chested man with long dark hair and an orange cloth draped over his shoulders stands in the foreground, looking toward the displays. Beside him a man in a white shirt and dark trousers and another man in orange robes look on. The glass shelves hold silver crowns, bowls, lamps and vels, and a tall brass staff with a trident-shaped finial stands at right. Visitors in orange and white move past the cabinets. Six to twenty people are visible.2007-08-09August 09 20072007-08-09September 18 20112011-09-18August 17 20092009-08-17
