A photograph of a long hall with a polished reflective floor where two rows of devotees stand facing a raised golden throne-like seat at the far end, decorated with a golden canopy and red and gold fabric. Many men and women stand with palms pressed together in anjali or hands folded, some in white dhotis and white shirts, others in saris and salwar. A man in a striped polo shirt and a woman in a striped cardigan are prominent in the foreground. Colourful striped and patterned pillars with orange tassels hang along the upper hall, and a small child in a red outfit stands at the right edge. The scene suggests darshan during a satsang.

Photograph of devotees standing in two long queues on either side of a cream carpeted aisle inside a large, pale hall with recessed ceiling lights and framed devotional pictures on the walls. On the left, women in saris and salwar kameez, some with red and orange shawls, stand with hands folded in namaste; a young girl in green and red embroidered dress holds flowers. On the right, men in white dhotis and orange kurta, a man in orange kurta with arms folded, and men in white and green clothing wait in line behind silver stanchions. A man in a white dhoti with a tilak on his forehead stands at the far right with hands folded. Several people stand at the far end of the hall near a bright table.

A photograph of a large crowd of devotees standing in rows inside a white tent at an event, with a lit stage backdrop visible in the upper background. Foreground figures include a woman in a yellow kurta and orange shawl, a woman in a red sari with an orange shawl, a woman in a white dress with a maroon-embroidered shawl, and a man in a teal kurta with a lanyard; several wear orange-saffron shawls and gold necklaces. A small girl in a pink floral dress stands in front, and seated devotees fill the lower left. Many people in the back rows wear white ritual dress. No clearly identifiable central figure is visible in the frame.

A long hall with polished floor where two lines of devotees stand facing inward toward a decorated stage at the far end. On the left, men in white shirts and white dhotis, some wearing rudraksha malas, stand with hands folded; a young boy in a grey shirt stands in front. On the right, women in green salwar, grey shawls, a yellow and blue outfit and a grey shawl stand with hands clasped. Colourful striped pillars with orange tassels hang from a white draped ceiling, and an arched floral backdrop frames a red-draped seat on the stage.

A photograph of a long hall with a polished reflective floor where a line of devotees stands facing a central dais. Men in white dhotis and kurtas and women in saris stand with palms pressed together in namaste. In the foreground a man in a white shirt and brown trousers stands with hands folded, a man in a striped shirt and grey trousers stands beside him with arms crossed, and a small boy in a light blue shirt presses his palms together. A woman in a green sari with gold border and a woman in a grey jacket stand near children in red and striped sweaters. Behind them a gold and red ornate seat or peetha stands at the far end, flanked by multicoloured tasselled hangings with orange fringes. A large framed painting of a saffron-robed figure hangs on the right wall, and projector screens are visible.

A long double line of devotees stands with hands folded in namaskar along a polished marble-floored hall, facing a decorated shrine at the far end. Men on the left wear white dhotis and shirts, some in dark or teal shirts; women on the right wear saris in red, orange, green and pink, and several hold folded cloth. Colourful woven pillar drapes with orange tassels hang from the ceiling. At the far end, a gold-framed ornate shrine with floral decoration holds a deity murti, and a figure in orange robes stands near it. The scene reads as a satsang or darshan line in an ashram hall. No individual is clearly identifiable as the a person from appearance.
