A photo of a seated satsang talk. A shaved-headed man in white clothes with an orange shawl sits at left, hands joined in namaste and smiling. In the centre, a smiling man in white kurta wears a rudraksha mala and an ID badge and speaks into a handheld microphone on a stand. Another man in white sits at right, and the backs of several seated listeners are in the foreground. Behind them are a maroon wall and a pink cloth. No clear visual cues establish which seated man is a person, so identity is left uncertain.

A photograph of a seated satsang gathering with people meditating with eyes closed on a striped blue mat before red-cushioned chairs. In the foreground a young man in white dhoti and shawl with a gold border wears a rudraksha mala, white and red tilak on forehead, and sits in meditation posture. Beside him a man in white shirt and glasses sits with hands folded, and behind them a man in a maroon shirt meditates. On the right a man in white dhoti with a red-striped border sits upright. Further back a man in a pale blue shirt sits with hands clasped. No a person candidate is visible; attendees are seated in meditation during a discourse session.

A large group of seated devotees, mostly men, sit in rows on an orange mat during a satsang or meditation gathering. Many wear white dhotis and shawls with gold borders, rudraksha malas, and white sacred ash on their foreheads. Several sit with hands pressed in anjali, eyes closed in prayer. A bald man in a white kurta, wearing glasses and a rudraksha mala, sits at centre with hands joined near his waist. Some devotees in the back wear white shirts, and a few appear to be women seated at the rear. The setting is an indoor hall with a bright orange floor covering.

A photograph of a seated satsang audience inside a hall with a light floor. In the foreground, several men wear plain white dhoti-style garments, with tilak marks on their foreheads and headphones on their heads. A younger man in a white robe with a shaved head sits centrally, and another seated man wears white with a lanyard. Behind them, women in white and pastel clothing, including a woman in a pink top, sit in rows. A small brass lamp and a green dish with offerings sit on the floor at the lower right. No discernible a person candidate is clearly visible, so the a person field is set to none.
