Two women in white saris with orange shawls sit on a tiled stage floor, sorting and arranging piles of metallic tinsel decorations in red, gold, silver, pink, green and blue on a white cloth. The woman on the right smiles as she works with a silver tinsel garland; the woman behind her handles more tinsel. A blue wall and a yellow door form the backdrop, with a white plastic chair at the right edge.

Women in white saris with orange shawls sit outdoors on a concrete-block veranda, weaving long pale green palm leaves into small decorative shapes. A woman in the centre wears a white sari with a gold border, a red-orange beaded necklace and gold bangles. Behind them a man in white with a black head covering and a woman in an orange shawl look on, and a few people stand in the background near parked white vans and a dirt yard. Gold bangles and a wristwatch are visible on the hands working the leaves.

The woman on the right, with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala, sits on a white chair and winds thread around a brass lamp stand or ritual frame. The woman on the left, seated on the mat in white with an orange shawl, works on a brass vessel beside a brass pot, a white cotton ball, red flowers, and books on the mat. Other people in white and orange are partly visible at the top edge.

A photograph of two women seated on a white floor during a puja setting. On the left, a smiling woman in orange-saffron clothing wears a long rudraksha mala and a bindi, with a band of bangles on her wrist. On the right, a woman in a cream saree with gold border and gold jewellery bends forward, holding a small object in her hands over a brass tray. The tray holds yellow and purple flowers, a brass kalasha-style vessel and gold accents. Behind them are gold-framed pillars, a maroon drape and a red-saffron cloth in the background. No a person candidate is clearly visible.

Seated women in a satsang hall with eyes closed in meditation. In the foreground a young woman in a white sari with gold border wears an orange shawl and a small bindi, with stud earrings and a pale gold necklace. Beside her, a woman in a white sari wears a rudraksha-style mala and drop earrings. Further left, women in yellow shawls sit with hands resting in their laps. Red drapes hang behind them, and blurred figures fill the background. No identifiable depiction of the teacher is visible in the frame.

Several young girls in orange and maroon dresses sit in a row at a satsang or ritual gathering, many with rudraksha malas, white vibhuti marks on their foreheads, and hands pressed in anjali. Some hold white flowers, possibly in prayer or offering. A girl in front closes her eyes in devotion, and a small crown or tiara is visible at the bottom edge. Behind them, others sit in orange and maroon clothing with long rope barriers and a brass tray at the lower right. The scene is one of devotional sitting and prayer, with no clearly identifiable a person present.
