Many men sit cross-legged on the floor in white dhotis with gold borders, some bare-chested and wearing rudraksha malas, others in white kurtas, and several in saffron or orange cloths. Several hold their palms joined in anjali while looking forward toward an unseen speaker. A tripod-mounted camera and a large screen stand near the back wall, and framed portraits hang above the doorways. Crowd members are visible throughout the room. No individual is clearly identifiable as a specific person from appearance, so no a person identification is made.2017-07-09August 19 20132013-08-19May 20 20182018-05-20February 14 20162016-02-14A large indoor satsang hall with a red and orange colour scheme, where many devotees sit cross-legged on white cloth in close rows. Most wear white dhotis and kurtas or white saris, with saffron and red shawls, and some have orange tilaka on their foreheads and lanyards around their necks. Several men in front wear rudraksha malas and hold their hands in lap or prayer posture. At the back, a decorated stage area with hanging orange cloth panels and framed photographs on the walls is visible. The gathering appears to be a spiritual discourse session with an audience of many hundreds, though only part of the audience is fully visible.2015-10-08June 20 20152015-06-20September 28 20162016-09-28A large hall with rows of seated devotees on red mats facing a distant stage where a figure in white stands near golden deity decorations and a golden throne-like seat.
