A photograph of a hall with men seated cross-legged on orange and purple mats in a meditative gathering. In the foreground a young man in a white shirt and white dhoti wears a blue rudraksha-style bead mala, and beside him a man in a cream shirt and dark trousers sits with hands folded. Other men in white kurtas, pastel shirts and a blue-striped shirt sit in rows. Behind them, empty red chairs are stacked along the left wall, white metal scaffolding frames hang yellow and blue woven banners, and a person in a red shirt stands near the wooden doors. No a person candidate is clearly visible.

A seated group of devotees fills a hall with terracotta floor tiles and an orange cloth canopy overhead. Men in white shirts and white dhotis sit cross-legged on orange mats and striped rugs, many wearing rudraksha malas and name badges on lanyards. A few women in white saris sit in folding chairs at the back, and an open booklet lies on the mat in front of the seated men. Their attention is directed forward, toward the front of the hall, which is not shown in the frame.

A photograph of a large seated audience inside a hall with cream walls and tiled floor, attending a talk. Most attendees wear white shirts and white dhotis, many with lanyards or name badges and rudraksha-style neck beads. A man in a magenta shirt sits near the front, and a man on the right holds a small book with a gold-edged cover. Some people sit on plastic chairs while others sit cross-legged on orange and blue mats near the front. A bright banner with blue and yellow patterns hangs from the ceiling, and a blue wall sign with white text is visible on the back wall. No clearly identifiable speaker is shown on a stage in this view.

Photograph of a seated meditation gathering on a mat indoors. Dozens of devotees in white ritual clothes sit cross-legged in rows, many wearing rudraksha malas, with eyes closed and hands resting in their laps. Plastic white chairs are stacked along the back of the hall. The front row shows a man in a white shirt and white dhoti sitting with hands folded, and a bearded man in white with glasses and a mala holding his hands together. The ceremony appears to be an energy darshan.
