A large hall filled with rows of seated devotees in white traditional clothing, many wearing rudraksha malas, sitting on mats during a satsang or meditation session. In the foreground, a shaved-headed man in white with a red-and-gold trimmed cloth sits cross-legged on a mat, hands clasped, beside a man in orange and red sash and a man in yellow-trimmed white. Some attendees wear headphones, and a power strip and a small red booklet lie on the orange mats. Walls are cream and red with a wall clock visible in the background.

A large seated congregation of devotees fills a hall during a satsang. Most men wear white dhotis and white shirts with orange-red shawls draped over their shoulders, many with rudraksha malas and sandalwood or vibhuti markings on their foreheads. In the foreground, a man in white with an orange shawl sits cross-legged with hands joined, and a younger man in white with an orange shawl and a red thread necklace sits at right. Further back, some men wear orange and saffron garments. A figure at the front centre wears white with an orange shawl and a gold chain. Rows of people extend to the back of the room, with framed pictures on the walls.

A photograph of a large ceremonial gathering in a tented hall where many sannyasis in saffron-orange dhotis and shawls, wearing rudraksha malas, sit cross-legged on colourful striped mats in rows. Leaf plates with food and small white cups are set before them, and a man in the foreground at centre gestures with a hand near a microphone. Behind them, a standing crowd in white clothing and a row of decorated umbrellas and a canopy frame the scene, with wall displays of photographs on the left. A seated figure at centre-right with a shaved head and orange garments appears to be the focus of the rows, with a drum visible at right. Several people are seated at the front holding plates and cups.

A large indoor satsang hall where many devotees sit cross-legged on a tiled floor, most wearing white dhoti and shirt with rudraksha malas and orange-red flower garlands. Some men in saffron and orange robes sit among them, and one man near the centre wears a red shawl and a white garment. Foreheads bear white vibhuti and tilak marks. No single figure is identifiable as a presenter in this view.

A large photograph of a seated audience inside a spacious hall with cream walls, rows of ceiling lights and framed devotional pictures. Hundreds of men in white dhotis and white shirts, many with orange shawls and sandalwood or vibhuti marks on their foreheads, sit cross-legged on mats in rows facing forward. Women in colourful saris sit on the left side. Gold-coloured ornamental pillars and a framed deity picture stand at the sides. No speaker is clearly visible at the front of the frame, and the photograph is a wide crowd view of a satsang or discourse session.

A large hall with pink walls and a red curtained stage at the back holds a seated gathering on a white tiled floor for a Navaratri darbar. Many people sit in rows and a loose circle, most in saffron orange robes and orange head wraps, while others wear white dhotis and white shirts. A small wooden stand with a red cushion and a red-and-gold throne sit near the centre front. Several people stand near the stage, and a cameraman with a tripod works at the left. Framed photographs hang on the far walls, and a large screen shows a figure on the stage.
