A large seated assembly fills a hall, with many people in white and orange clothing. In the foreground, young devotees in saffron-orange dhotis with gold borders wear rudraksha malas and stripes of vibhuti on their foreheads, with eyes closed in meditation. Behind them, men and women in white kurtas and dhotis sit in rows, some with red shawls and white ID lanyards. A bald older man in a red shawl and a man in an orange garment with a rudraksha mala are among those seated near the front. The room has wooden paneling and a wall of cushions and seating in the background.

A seated assembly of devotees in a hall during a satsang or discourse. In the foreground, a man in orange robes and a rudraksha mala with a gold pendant sits with palms pressed together in prayer, beside a shaved-headed man in white with gold-bordered dhoti and vibhuti on his forehead. Rows of white-clad devotees sit on striped mats behind them, with a few in orange, and more people seated at the back of the hall. Metal stanchions divide the seating area and a red-orange cloth hangs on the left. Many attendees wear white kurtas or dhotis and some carry rudraksha malas. No one is clearly identifiable as a person from the visible cues alone.

A large seated congregation fills a pink-walled hall at a Guru Purnima gathering. Many men sit cross-legged on the floor in white dhotis with gold borders, some bare-chested and wearing rudraksha malas, others in white kurtas, and several in saffron or orange cloths. Several hold their palms joined in anjali while looking forward toward an unseen speaker. A tripod-mounted camera and a large screen stand near the back wall, and framed portraits hang above the doorways. Crowd members are visible throughout the room. No individual is clearly identifiable as a specific person from appearance, so no a person identification is made.

A large indoor hall with a polished floor and gold-accented shrine elements in the background shows a seated congregation on mats. In the foreground, a bald man in a white dhoti with gold border and a rudraksha mala sits with folded arms, beside a man in saffron-orange robe and rudraksha mala, a man in white dhoti with a red-and-white forehead mark, and a youth in a checked shirt holding papers. Many more devotees in white and colourful clothes sit behind them, with brass vessels and small lamps on the floor. The scene reads as a satsang or puja gathering. The pictured people are not individually identified.

A photograph of a large seated assembly inside a plain hall with pale pink walls and a wooden door. Many devotees sit cross-legged on a red floor covering, most wearing orange or saffron cloth with rudraksha malas, and several have white or ash forehead markings. Others wear white dhotis with gold-bordered yellow cloth and sit with hands folded in prayer. In the foreground a boy in white clothes sits gazing ahead, while a boy in white with a rudraksha mala closes his eyes in meditation beside a cloth bag and a basket of flowers. The attendees are seated attentively in a satsang or meditation gathering. No a person candidate is clearly identifiable by appearance.
