A wide view of an indoor hall at an ashram during a morning satsang. On a raised stage with a dark red curtain, a seated figure in orange robes sits on a white throne-like seat with a microphone stand nearby. Rows of devotees in white clothes sit on striped mats on the floor, and others sit on black plastic chairs in the foreground, one man in a red shirt and another in white. A small framed portrait hangs on the right wall beside red curtained windows. Recessed ceiling lights and a round wall-mounted speaker are visible. The crowd is roughly twenty people.

A seated audience of about twenty participants faces a stage in a hall with deep red velvet drapes.

On the stage, a small altar holds orange flowers and lit oil lamps before a framed image, with a white draped table in front. Camera tripods, a flip chart and a potted plant sit nearby. Participants wear white clothes and sit on blue-and-white striped mats, some with bags and water bottles beside them. A speaker is mounted on the wall at right.

On the stage, a figure in saffron-orange robes sits on a golden throne-like chair, with two attendants in orange robes standing beside it. A large portrait on the right shows a smiling man in an orange turban and saffron clothing, labelled with a printed caption.

A wide view of a large indoor satsang hall with a maroon curtain backdrop and an orange-draped raised platform on the left. On the platform a seated figure in orange clothing sits behind a microphone stand, with a flower arrangement nearby. Rows of devotees in white clothes sit cross-legged on orange floor mats, many with books or pamphlets beside them, and women in coloured saris sit at the back. Colourful hanging decorations and orange drapery are visible overhead. The visible figure on the platform has long hair and orange clothing; the speaker's appearance is too small and distant to confirm, so the identity is unsure.
