A photograph of a large hall filled with seated devotees dressed in white. Most men wear white kurta-style clothing with rudraksha malas, and many sit cross-legged on white floor mats with orange-edged mats in front. Several people hold small books or notebooks. Rows of people fill the room, and the hall has cream walls, hanging orange and multicoloured decorative banners, and orange lamp shades overhead. The people appear to be seated in meditation or attentive listening. No single figure is clearly identifiable as a specific person in this crowd view.

A large seated congregation of devotees fills a hall during a satsang. Most men wear white dhotis and white shirts with orange-red shawls draped over their shoulders, many with rudraksha malas and sandalwood or vibhuti markings on their foreheads. In the foreground, a man in white with an orange shawl sits cross-legged with hands joined, and a younger man in white with an orange shawl and a red thread necklace sits at right. Further back, some men wear orange and saffron garments. A figure at the front centre wears white with an orange shawl and a gold chain. Rows of people extend to the back of the room, with framed pictures on the walls.

A large tented gathering with a ceiling draped in yellow, orange, green and red festoons and triangular pennants, lined with striped poles. Rows of white plastic chairs hold a dense audience of several hundred people, mostly men in white dhotis and kurtas with rudraksha malas, alongside saffron-robed sannyasis and some people in blue and yellow. A few men wear yellow shawls and orange head cloths, and a row of figures in the back right wears tall ornate headdresses. A red-covered table sits at the left edge, and a green railing and orange triangular bunting run along the front. The scene looks like a satsang or programme seating area.
