A photograph of a large indoor hall during an ashramite gathering. A person in orange robes sits on a white-draped throne-like seat on a raised stage, with a small white table holding flowers beside them. Rows of seated attendees in white clothes with orange and yellow shawls face the stage, many with long braids, some on white plastic chairs in front. A camera on a tripod stands at the right edge, a fan is set near the stage, and a dark red curtain forms the backdrop.

Photograph of a seated audience in a hall with red draped curtains and stage lighting. On a white throne-like armchair on the stage sits a person in orange robes with long dark hair, appearing to address the room; the appearance is consistent with a person, with long swept-back hair and saffron clothing. A man in orange robes stands at the left near a wooden door. The audience, mostly seated in white clothes on plastic chairs, faces the stage, with a camera on a tripod and studio lights in view. Colourful hanging decorative panels with bird motifs hang from the ceiling.

A photo of a satsang hall where a seated teacher in an orange robe and leopard-print shawl sits on an ornate orange throne-like chair on a raised stage, with a microphone stand and a small vase of flowers on a white pedestal beside. Facing the stage, a crowd of mostly young people in white clothes sits cross-legged on orange mats, with a few wearing white shirts with dark collars, and some women in white saris with orange shawls. A dark maroon curtain hangs behind the stage, a white projection screen is at right, a standing fan is at left and orange chairs line the wall near white doors.

A photograph of a hall with a seated speaker in orange robes on a white armchair-style throne on a raised platform in front of a deep red curtain. Flower vases with red blossoms flank the throne, and a microphone stands nearby. A large audience sits on the floor and in chairs facing the stage, many in white, pink, green and blue clothes, shown from behind. White ceiling fans and a hanging decorative banner with geometric patterns and tassels are visible. A wall sign reads partly in English. The figure on the throne wears saffron/orange clothing and long dark hair; the appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person, though the face is not clearly discernible at this distance, so the identity remains uncertain.

A photograph of a satsang hall with a dark red curtain backdrop. A seated man in orange robes sits in an orange armchair, holding an open book, with a framed portrait on an easel behind him. To the left, a woman in a white sari with a yellow border speaks into a microphone while seated on a chair. In the foreground, a large audience of people in white clothes sits cross-legged on the floor facing the stage, with a few women in orange and yellow saris at the right side. Stage lights and a camera stand are visible.

A seated teacher in saffron-orange robes and a large beaded mala sits on a brown wooden throne in a hall, with a dark cloth-covered table and a laptop in front of him. Around him, a large audience in white clothes with red-orange shawls sits on the floor in rows, many wearing headphones, and others sit on white chairs at the back. Behind the throne a display area with framed posters and a flower arrangement is visible. The image is a photograph of a seminar room during a session. The figure on the throne has long hair and a mala and wears saffron clothing, matching cues that could indicate a person but the face and build are not clearly visible enough to be certain. Visible people: about 60 seated attendees and the teacher.

A satsang hall seen from behind a seated audience of devotees in white and saffron-orange clothing with red-orange shawls. In the centre-right, a man in a saffron-orange robe, rudraksha mala and a large gold pendant necklace sits on an ornate orange-cushioned throne with carved wooden armrests; a trident-topped staff stands beside him. Probable Swamiji appears here by appearance cues of long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas, saffron clothing and ceremonial gold necklace, seated in an ornate throne as the speaker before devotees. Foreground devotees in white with red shawls, a woman in a white top at left, and rows of seated people in white and saffron fill the room beneath yellow wall panels and wooden doors.

A photograph of a seated audience in a hall with cream walls, ceiling fans, and a deep red velvet curtain behind a raised stage. On the stage, a person in orange robes sits on a white cushioned seat and speaks into a microphone on a stand, facing the audience. The audience sits on orange and red mats in rows, many in white clothing, some holding water bottles and notebooks. A man in a light grey shirt sits near the front left, and several participants wear lanyards. A wooden door and a decorative hanging with elephant motifs appear at the back. The scene resembles a satsang or discourse session.
