A large hall with a wide audience seated on black plastic chairs and orange mats on a white tiled floor, mostly dressed in white with some in yellow and orange. At the far end, a figure in orange robes sits on a raised white dais with a microphone, facing the audience, with a red curtain and projection screen beside. Tall hanging cloth banners in yellow, blue and multicolour patterns with elephant motifs decorate the ceiling space, and a painted deity mural is visible on the right wall. Water bottles and orange bags sit near the front rows.

A large indoor hall filled with a seated audience, mostly dressed in white, facing a stage at the far end. On a raised white throne-like seat in front of a red velvet drape, a figure in orange clothing sits, with flowers beside the seat and tall candles at each side. Decorative hanging pillars with blue, yellow and red patterns hang from the white ceiling, with ceiling fans overhead. A camera on a tripod stands near the audience. Audience members in foreground show white clothes and some with dark hair, seen from behind.

A stage with a large ornate yellow-and-red decorated backdrop and a brown cushioned throne on which a figure in an orange robe sits, appearing to be a statue or lifelike figure rather than a living person. In front of the stage, seated on the floor, are devotees in white and orange clothing, including people in white shirts, a woman in white with a yellow wrap, and monastics in orange robes with shaved heads. A whiteboard on an easel, a fan, a projection screen, and a video camera on a tripod are visible. A few other people are seated in the lower foreground.

A seated teacher in orange robes and an orange turban sits on an orange upholstered throne on a raised stage, speaking into a microphone before a red curtain. Rows of seated attendees in white clothes and orange or yellow shawls face the stage on the floor, with many women wearing long braids. A second man in orange sits at the left edge near a camera on a tripod, and a small framed picture stands on the stage beside the throne. Ceiling fans hang above, and a projector screen is mounted on the left wall. The scene suggests a satsang or discourse. a person's identity is not established from appearance, so the central figure is described by role only.
