A photograph of a covered prison hall with a tiled floor and barred windows, where a large seated audience of men in mostly white, pastel and checked shirts and lungis sits on the floor facing a speaker. In the foreground, a figure seen from behind in a white garment with an orange-saffron shawl sits at a white-draped table with a wooden base, the back of the head visible. Several standing staff in white shirts and trousers stand along the edges of the hall. The room has a corrugated roof, a low green-and-red painted wall and a railing separating the speaker's area. Approximately fifty to sixty people are visible in the audience.

A photograph inside a covered prison hall at a meditation convention. Rows of seated male prisoners in mostly white and pastel shirts and dhotis wear white blindfold strips across their eyes. In the foreground a man with his back to the camera wears a white shirt with an orange-red shawl over his shoulders and sits behind a white-draped table. Two men in white shirts stand at left, one bending over the seated rows. Metal roof beams, barred windows and trees outside frame the scene.

A large group of men sits cross-legged on a white tiled floor in a bright hall during a prison convention. Most wear checked lungis, shirts and pastel sarongs in pinks, blues, greens and purples, and several have hands pressed together in namaste. A bearded man in a green shirt and checked lungi sits front centre, and a man in white shirt and white dhoti sits in the foreground. Red-painted floor borders run across the room, and a few standing figures and a man in white at the back wall watch from a distance. Light streams through large windows.

Several men sit cross-legged on yellow mats in front of a metal railing, many in white shirts, one wearing a rudraksha mala. Standing along the right wall, people in white dhotis and kurtas and a man in a light green shirt watch quietly. A metal table with a glass top stands in the foreground. A woman in white and an orange-robed figure stand in the background near the open doorway.

A photograph of a large seated gathering inside an open-sided pavilion with a tiled floor and bamboo-screened windows. Many men in white kurta and dhoti sit in rows facing a standing figure at the far end, while women in white saris sit at the right side of the hall. A standing figure in white with an orange shawl stands near a white-draped table holding a small object, and another person in orange stands near a brass lamp stand. A black carrying case sits on the floor near the central aisle. Attendees appear to be listening, consistent with a talk or satsang, though no readable signage is visible.

A large open-sided hall with a corrugated metal roof and unfinished concrete block walls holds a seated audience on rows of striped woven mats. In the foreground, an empty white-draped chair stands beside a microphone stand, with brass plates, bowls and a small kettle-like vessel set on mats before it. A line of devotees sits cross-legged in white clothes, with several wearing pale green, blue and red garments. At the centre, a man in a saffron-orange robe and a white shirt sits near the front, and a man in white kurta sits beside him. Bright daylight comes through the openings and a statue stands at the far right edge.

A large indoor hall filled with a dense audience of participants dressed almost entirely in white, many men and some women, seated on the floor in rows. In the foreground at left, a figure with long, swept-back dark hair wears an orange-yellow garment and sits on a raised orange-draped platform, speaking into a microphone on a stand, with a hand raised. A second person in white sits near the front, and a small framed photograph sits on the orange cloth. Potted green plants, lattice-patterned wall panels, columns and windows frame the hall. Several people in the crowd wear bright blue, pink and orange clothing.

In the foreground, several men sit cross-legged on a mat; the central man presses his palms together in greeting, and another wears a light blue lower garment and a pendant around his neck. Behind them a few people stand near an open doorway to a green outdoor area. Nearby on the wall hangs a round red-and-white decorative motif and a small blue sign.

A photograph inside a covered hall with a corrugated metal roof and exposed steel trusses. Rows of seated devotees fill the floor and a raised section on the left, most in white clothing, many wearing rudraksha-style beads and name badges. A red carpet runs down a central aisle between silver metal railings toward a small table at the lower right. A child in a striped red and blue shirt sits near the railing in the foreground, and a man in an orange shirt sits in the front row. The walls are white with a red and white decorative motif on the left and blue signage above a doorway. Palm trees are visible through an open doorway at the back.
