A photo of a discourse at an outdoor-roofed stage. A figure in orange robes and an orange head covering stands at a wooden podium with a microphone, its front panel bearing a red emblem and Tamil script. To the left, a golden arched shrine frame holds a deity murti decorated with a garland and dressed in pink and white, with a blue plastic chair and potted plants nearby. A wooden railing and a blue curtain frame the stage. In the foreground, a seated audience of schoolchildren in pink-and-white checked uniforms faces the stage, seen from behind with dark hair visible.

A photograph of an outdoor stage at a discourse event. A man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban stands at a brown wooden podium with a microphone, speaking. Behind him is a deity murti with a white and red face, a gold arched frame and a striped garland, beside a colourful swirling painted backdrop. A blue draped cloth and corrugated roof cover the stage, with yellow picket railing and blue chairs in front. A brass oil lamp and potted plants sit on the stage. Audience heads are visible at the bottom of the frame. The podium carries Tamil-script lettering. The speaker's appearance is consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable identification from visible cues: long swept-back hair, an orange turban and saffron robes.

Rows of blue plastic chairs hold many devotees, mostly in white, cream and pastel saris and shirts; some women wear flowers in their hair. On the stage, a figure in orange robes sits on a white-draped seat before a curved backdrop with green and yellow panels. A man in a white shirt holds a light stand near the stage and a cameraman with a camera stands at the right. Yellow and red decorative drapes frame the stage. A figure in orange at the stage's right edge appears to be a staff member. a person (saffron robes, seated central figure on stage), and the attendees are seated audience members.

A large hall with a corrugated metal roof and blue walls hosts a seated audience of many children and youths on the floor, wearing mostly bright shirts and salwar-style clothes. At the front, on a raised red-edged stage, a seated figure in an orange robe sits on an ornate gold throne-like chair beneath a large framed portrait of a bald figure in gold-toned robes draped with a dark curtain. A standing man in a light shirt and grey trousers addresses the audience beside the stage, and a white-clad attendant stands at the right edge. A smaller framed portrait of a figure in a white turban is mounted on the left, and a green banner is visible at the far left. A fan stands at the right side of the stage.

A photograph of a children's programme in a tent-covered hall. On the left, a person in an orange robe sits on a white throne-like seat decorated with red flowers, with a microphone stand in front. Many children sit cross-legged on a colourful striped woven mat, wearing mostly white, blue, yellow and orange shirts. Two painted, decorated pillars with fringed tassels stand in the hall, and a white-clad person stands near the back holding a camera.

A seated long-haired man in an orange-red garment with a gold-edged shawl sits on a red-draped dais before a microphone, speaking to a seated assembly of young students in white dhotis with gold borders, some wearing saffron shawls and rudraksha beads. Behind him is a framed portrait of a man in an orange turban and a gilded deity murti with garlands. A video camera on a tripod is in the foreground at right. The man has long swept-back hair, ornate gold-trimmed clothing and a ceremonial appearance consistent with the Swamiji (probable) cues of hair, saffron attire and a dais position, while the page identifies this as a Gurukul session.
