A photograph of a long line of women standing in a covered breezeway beside a building with large windows, waiting in a queue. Most are wearing sarees and salwar in mixed colours, including blue, purple, pink, orange, red and white, with long plaited hair and some with flowers in their hair. One older woman in the foreground wears a blue saree and holds papers, and another older woman in white holds a bag. Behind the windows, faint figures are visible inside the building. No a person candidate is visible in this image.

A photograph of a corridor inside a building with pale walls, a dark doorway and tall windows with metal grilles. A line of women in everyday Indian clothing stands waiting. The foreground woman wears a peach and orange sari with a blue ID badge and gold bangles; beside her an older woman wears a turquoise and purple sari holding a small bag, and another older woman with grey hair wears a floral sari. Behind them younger women wear kurtas, salwar and sarees in pink, white, orange and blue.

A large crowd of devotees fills a tented hall with white fabric ceiling and ceiling fans. Most people are women in cotton saris and salwar kameez, many wearing bindis, some with glasses, and a few with lanyards. Men in white shirts stand at the back right. Striped decorative pillars with colourful bands line the hall and a dark screen hangs on the wall. The gathering appears attentive, facing toward the stage area out of frame.

A crowded indoor corridor with white tiled walls where many women and a few young men are pressed together, some queuing and reaching forward. A woman in the foreground wears an orange-red shawl over a purple blouse, and another in a white sari has a red-and-black mala. A woman at right in a blue-and-white sari holds a metal tray of food near the top. Visible people number roughly twenty.

A large indoor hall with pink walls and red curtains where many women stand with palms pressed together in namaskar, as if in prayer or satsang. Most wear white or cream sarees with coloured borders in yellow, purple and orange, and several wear black beaded mala necklaces; a few have hair pinned back and some wear bindis. A framed portrait of a smiling older man in a white head covering hangs on the left wall beside a smaller framed image, and a tall yellow fabric hanging with red and patterned bands is suspended from the ceiling. Decorative striped poles stand at the right, and a black speaker is mounted high on the wall. Behind the front row, many more people stand in rows toward the back of the room.

A photograph of a medical camp held in a two-storey concrete building with a covered ground-floor veranda. A long queue of women in colourful saris, including orange, pink, green and purple, and several children stands along the veranda waiting to be seen. A man in a white shirt and checked lungi stands at a wooden table near the entrance, and a parked red-and-black motorcycle sits in the dusty courtyard in front. A red banner hangs at the centre of the building. No one wearing ceremonial or a person-like clothing is visible.
