In the foreground, a flat-screen television shows a smiling man with a vertical tilak on his forehead, wearing orange robes and a beaded mala, as a live-feed display.

Around 60 seated participants are visible, including children and women in saris and salwar kameez.2012-10-27A satsang hall with a large seated audience of devotees in white clothes and lanyards, many sitting cross-legged on a white tiled floor, some with eyes closed in meditation.

A microphone on a boom stand is positioned in front of the seated group. Behind them, a standing person in white with an orange shawl stands near a tripod-mounted camera, and rows of people fill the room. Walls are yellow with ceiling fans and recessed lights, and a small bird logo appears in the upper-left corner.2008-06-09A large seated gathering of devotees on white floor sheets in a hall, many wearing white kurtas or white clothing with orange-red shawls draped over their shoulders.
