A photograph of a large group of children seated cross-legged on a red floor mat inside a tented hall with red plastic chairs at the edges. Most children wear white shirts and white trousers with white headbands tied across their foreheads, and some wear lavender or light purple shirts. Several children sit with hands folded in their laps or resting on their knees, facing a stage at the upper left covered in blue cloth. Among them sit a few adults in white and grey shirts, including an older man with grey hair and a white headband at left, and a bald man in a light shirt near the centre. Several children hold small green and white papers or notebooks.

A large photograph of a seated meditation session in a hall with a red floor covering. Hundreds of women and girls sit cross-legged in rows, each wearing a white blindfold tied over the eyes, dressed in saris and salwar kameez in colours including green, purple, pink, yellow, blue and orange. Many have name badges pinned to their clothes, and small paper cups, leaflets and white plates lie on the floor before them. The scene is an ashram-style programme with participants in meditation posture, and no individual is identifiable as the teacher from this view.

A large group of young women and girls sits cross-legged on dark red mats across a tiled hall, many with red cloth blindfolds over their eyes, in a meditative posture. Most wear white or cream salwar kameez or saris with pink and gold borders, pink shawls and beaded necklaces. Some hold small yellow bags and notebooks on the floor, and a few hands rest in mudra-like positions on their knees. Men in white dhotis and shirts sit in the background among rows of red plastic chairs, under a white-walled room with a wooden door. The scene suggests a meditation or satsang session.

A photograph of a seated group of schoolgirls in white and lavender uniforms, many wearing white headbands tied with white bows, sitting on a red floor covering in a tent. Red plastic chairs are stacked along the back and sides, and a red and white draped fabric hangs above. Some girls have braided hair and flower decorations, and a brown-clothed adult is seated among them. The white-and-red decor and lined-up seating suggest an organised gathering.

A photograph of a large hall where many seated participants sit on striped mats with white cloth blindfolds tied over their eyes, a meditation or sensory-awareness practice. Front-row women wear white saris with gold borders, a green sari, a red-and-white checked salwar and a pink sari; many also wear name badges and rudraksha or bead necklaces. Behind them men in white shirts and dark trousers sit in rows on the floor, and a few people stand near red curtains at the left. Books, water bottles and bags lie on the mats. White pillars and a red-and-white wall frame the room, and no a person figure is visible.

A large seated group of women at a satsang in a hall, nearly all wearing white cloth blindfolds tied across their eyes. They sit closely packed on the floor in saris and salwar kameez in white, cream, yellow, red, green, pink and blue, many with thin gold chains and some with rudraksha-style beads. Many have name badges or lanyards on their clothing. A woman in a red and gold sari sits in the foreground, and a woman in white with a rudraksha mala sits at right. The scene suggests a meditation session with eyes covered.
