A photograph of a shaded open pavilion with bamboo-mat ceiling and glass windows, showing devotees in prayer. In the centre, a man with short hair and a red tilak on his forehead stands with palms pressed together, wearing a sleeveless saffron-orange garment. To the left, several women in white saris with yellow shawls stand with hands folded, one wearing a rudraksha mala, and to the right a man in white with a yellow shawl also folds his hands. The scene shows devotional greeting or prayer in a simple ashram hall. a person identity is not established from appearance here, so the central man is described by role only.

Three men stand barefoot on a polished concrete floor in a bright hall with a white wall and a row of inscribed plaques. The man on the left wears an orange robe draped over one shoulder and presses his palms together in prayer. The man in the centre wears white kurta and dhoti with a black mala around his neck and stands with hands folded. The man on the right wears an orange robe with a red border, a gold necklace and a red-beaded mala, with hands folded. Behind them, people in saris and white garments stand or sit, a red-and-gold ceremonial parasol is set up to one side, and a steel vessel and altar with flowers sit at left.

Indoor puja gathering in a wood-panelled hall with a white projection screen on the right. Five men stand barefoot on striped mats with palms pressed together in anjali mudra. Most wear white dhotis and kurta-style shirts with red-orange shawls draped over their shoulders; the man on the far right, eyes closed with a red tilak on his forehead, wears white and gold bangles. Between them, a young woman in a yellow t-shirt and black trousers, also with a red shawl, stands with hands folded. Brass trays with offerings, small oil lamps and flowers lie on the floor in front, and black bags sit beside the mats. Additional devotees in white and red appear behind.

Indoor photo of a devotional gathering in a hall with white walls, a lattice window and a wooden door. In the centre, a man in an orange robe with a matching orange head covering and gold-coloured neck ornaments bows with palms joined near orange cushions laid on the floor. To his right, a figure in orange robes with palms pressed together stands on the floor. On the left, a woman in white with an orange-bordered sari and a man in white stand with hands folded in prayer. Several other people in white and orange clothing stand behind, and a bright lamp on a tripod stand is at the right edge. a person appearance is not clearly established from the image.

A photograph of a long-haired man in a saffron-orange sleeveless robe and a rudraksha mala with multicoloured beads, standing with palms pressed together in namaste and eyes lowered, with a red bindi on his forehead. Behind him, several men in white kurtas and dhotis, some with hands folded in namaste, stand in a white-walled hall; an elderly man in white is seated near an orange-cushioned chair with a laptop on it. A brown wooden door is in the background. The scene reads as a satsang or darshan gathering. a person: the standing man shows long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala, but his identity is uncertain from appearance alone and is recorded as in_person with unsure-level caution in the field value.
