A seated teacher in a red turban and saffron-orange robe, wearing a long rudraksha mala, sits in a brown leather armchair on a low platform, gesturing with one hand as he speaks. Around him a large seated audience in white clothes and pastel saris and salwars listens closely in a bright hall with a pillar, a water bottle and a microphone on a small table. Several people stand at the back, and a dark dhoti-clad man sits in the foreground. The scene resembles a satsang or discourse.

A man in an orange-red turban and orange-saffron robes sits on a dark wooden chair at the right edge, facing a crowd of around thirty people seated on the floor and in chairs. Most attendees wear white, cream or pastel clothing, with some women in yellow, blue and sari-style dress. A water bottle sits on a small table beside the figure in the turban. A portrait-sized image hangs on the upper right wall. The scene looks like a satsang or question-and-answer session.

A seated man in a rust-red sannyasi robe with a long beaded rudraksha mala draped over his shoulders sits on a large brown leather throne-like chair in a bright hall, eyes closed, hands resting on the armrest. Seated in front of him on the floor are many devotees in white dhotis and white kurtas with red-orange shawls, and a few in saffron. A small orange table with a water bottle sits before the chair. Several people sit in rows across the room, and a framed portrait hangs on the back wall. Visible people number roughly thirty, so the count is 21-100.

A seated speaker in a red-orange turban and saffron-orange robe sits on a brown leather armchair with a crimson cushion, holding a rudraksha mala and gesturing with one hand. Beside him a small table holds a red cup and a dark device. Around him a large audience sits cross-legged on a white floor, many women in saffron, pink, blue and white saris or kurtas and men in white shirts and white dhotis with gold borders. A framed picture hangs on the pale wall behind, and the room has a red-brick column at right. The gathering appears to be a seated satsang or discourse. The speaker is a person by appearance cues: red-orange turban, saffron robe and rudraksha mala.

A satsang hall where a man in orange-saffron robes and a saffron turban sits on a carved brown leather throne in front of a crowd. A gold trident (trishul) rises behind him from the turban area. Around him, many seated devotees in white clothing wear red-orange shawls draped over their shoulders, sitting on white cloth on the floor. Behind the throne is a shrine with colourful deity murtis, including a seated figure and standing figures in red and gold garments. Gold ornate pillars and a red stage curtain frame the room. The figure on the throne has a saffron mala and appears to be the presenter, with distinctive long hair, a trident and saffron clothing; the cues are visible but the identity is only probable from appearance. Roughly thirty or more people are visible.
