Photograph of a seated audience under a large tented pavilion with draped pink, maroon and cream fabric valances. Rows of red and blue plastic chairs face a stage at the far end where a figure in white sits on a raised platform with a small table and flowers in front. Many attendees wear white shirts and white clothing, while others wear dark garments. A banner on the left reads a Kannada and English title about the four states of consciousness. A framed portrait is displayed on the stage backdrop. The red carpeted aisle leads to the platform.

A large white-canopied tent filled with rows of seated devotees on plastic chairs, mostly in red and white, on a red and green floor covering. At the far end a small stage shows a decorated backdrop and a central dais with a figure in white standing beside an ornate seat. Black speakers flank the tent and blue banners hang along the sides. Many attendees wear saris in orange, pink and yellow, and some men wear white shirts and dhotis. The scene resembles a satsang or discourse gathering.

A seated audience fills a large tented hall with red plastic chairs on green carpet, facing a raised stage at the far end. Many attendees wear white or cream clothing, including men in white kurtas and women in cream and white saris and salwars; some wear green, olive and yellow. Two men in white stand near a pillar draped with yellow and white flower garlands at the back of the stage area, and a blue backdrop with a white bird emblem and a striped border hangs behind the stage. Speakers are mounted at the top left. Most people sit with heads turned toward the front, with some elderly attendees and a few seated on the floor.

A large outdoor tented assembly under a white canopy with fringed edges and hanging lamps along the posts, with a long green carpet aisle running toward a stage at the far end. Hundreds of seated devotees fill rows of red-cushioned chairs; many wear white, and women wear saris in orange, yellow and green. Near the front, a figure in white with an orange-and-white cloth stands at a central lectern and microphone stand, beside a draped white table, while another person in white stands nearby. Red and white banners decorate the back of the tent. A few people in orange and white clothing are visible among the audience, and an orange garland lies on a chair at left.

A large white-roofed tent hall filled with seated devotees on red floor mats and red plastic chairs, facing a raised stage at the far end. On the stage, a figure sits on an ornate white-and-gold seat beneath a canopy, in front of a carved wooden screen with lattice panels. A standing man in white clothes stands near the front of the audience, and a monitor displays the stage. Speakers and stage lights are set along the sides. The audience includes people in white, orange and multicoloured saris and clothing, with a white cloth spread in the foreground. The stage figure's appearance is too small and distant to confirm identity, so the seated figure is described only by role as a speaker or teacher on a throne.
