A large whitewashed hall with ceiling fans and a blue-framed roof, where a crowd of mostly women in white saris with coloured borders sits cross-legged on mats facing the front. On a zebra-striped armchair at the centre-right sits a figure in saffron-orange robes with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala, flanked by two seated men in saffron robes at the right edge. Two standing men in white and saffron stand near a speaker and table at the front. A probable Swamiji is seated on the throne; his long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala are visible cues. Several women wear flowers in their hair, and a few wear red, pink or orange saris.

A photograph of a seated audience in a plain white-walled hall, with many men in white shirts and dhotis seen from behind, filling the foreground.

A ceiling fan, a white cabinet and a wooden-framed doorway are visible. The scene appears to be a seated satsang or discourse. Appearance-based candidate: a person, seated on the throne in orange clothing and a rudraksha mala.

Indoor photo of a meeting in a plain white-walled hall with a corrugated metal roof and ceiling fans. Seated men in white shirts and white dhotis, some wearing yellow shawls, sit on plastic and metal chairs and a striped mat facing a seated figure. That figure, on a white cushioned seat at right, wears orange-saffron robes and long dark hair, with a microphone in front. Standing monks in orange robes stand at the right edge. A video camera on a tripod and a cameraman are at the centre. At left, a framed portrait labelled with an orange-robed figure sits beside brass lamps and flower garlands on a small altar. The portrait is a depiction and the seated figure is only a probable candidate with uncertain appearance cues.
