A large indoor hall with pink walls and framed pictures, where many seated people in saffron-orange and white clothes sit on the floor in rows for a satsang. Foreground women wear orange saris and orange shawls with rudraksha malas; one has a white tilak on her forehead and another a red bindi, and one holds an open book. Brass lamps and brass vessels sit on the floor before them. A large framed portrait of a saffron-robed figure with long hair hangs on the back wall above the crowd, and people in white and orange fill the room. Counting visible people, this is a large gathering.2017-07-04September 30 20162016-09-30July 02 20172017-07-02September 25 20132013-09-25January 28 20132013-01-28July 22 20132013-07-22August 08 20142014-08-08October 10 20102010-10-10 +1 copiesA large group of seated women in saffron-orange sarees and rudraksha malas performs a ritual puja in a hall with white-clad attendees behind them.

Small brass lamps and offering plates with flowers and sweets sit on the floor. No man in saffron or a person-like figure is clearly visible, so no in-person identification is made. Chairs and a white railing appear at the back.2013-08-03A large group of women and some men in orange and saffron saris and robes sit cross-legged on a tiled floor in a hall with red curtains and red cushioned seating.

Red and orange mats cover the floor, with brass pooja vessels and lamps in front of them. Some participants in white and red clothes sit further back, and a few wear glasses.
