A large outdoor tent gathering of seated devotees in white dhotis and white shirts, many with white vibhuti marks on their foreheads and some wearing rudraksha malas. They sit on mats and cloth on the ground under a patterned red tent canopy supported by bamboo poles, with rows of white lights strung overhead. Several men in the foreground look toward the front, and some hold small bags or belongings. No single figure in the frame is clearly identifiable as a person; the visible people are attendees seated for a satsang or class.

A night-time outdoor gathering under a tent with colourful striped and scalloped canopy panels and bright floodlights. Many devotees sit cross-legged on multicoloured striped mats, most men in white dhotis and white shirts, some bare-chested with sacred threads, and women in white saris with yellow borders at the right. A man in the left foreground holds a coconut. At the back, a raised platform holds a seated figure and gold ritual items, with trident-shaped staffs (tridents) standing along the sides. Banners and printed panels hang at the rear. Roughly several dozen people are visible.

A large crowd of men dressed in white dhotis and white shirts sits closely packed on a floor covered with a pink and cream cloth, at an evening event lit by string lights. Many wear white tripundra forehead markings, and several have rudraksha malas around their necks. Some carry yellow cloth bundles. A boy in a white shirt with a red bindi sits in the foreground, and a shirtless man with ash-marked body and rudraksha beads sits among them. No single figure is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance, so no candidate is listed.

A large seated crowd of men in white dhotis and white shirts fills a pandal hung with red and gold streamers and striped yellow-and-green hangings. Many wear rudraksha malas and yellow-green ribbon garlands. Several men in the back row wear saffron/orange shawls over white. The group sits on white mats facing forward, and a few are gesturing or looking toward the front. Printed banners and framed pictures line the back wall. No candidate for a person is clearly identifiable from appearance, so no identity is claimed.

A large indoor satsang hall with a white tent-like ceiling and yellow hanging banners at the top. Many devotees in white clothes sit closely together on striped woven mats in rows, facing the front. A few men wear orange shawls and rudraksha malas, and a bald man in front sits cross-legged. A camera on a tripod stands at the left edge near a stage area. Some devotees have tilak marks on their foreheads.

Many men in white dhoti and white shirts sit cross-legged on mats and carpets, several with white vibhuti or tilak marks on their foreheads and some wearing lanyard identification badges. A man in the foreground wears a white shirt and dark trousers with a badge and holds a pen. A few people in the back wear orange and red garments. A woman in a red saree stands in the background. Some attendees appear to be resting or lying down among the seated crowd. The scene appears to be a satsang or meditation class.

A large seated congregation of men in white dhotis and white shirts fills a bright hall with polished floors, sitting on red and striped mats while many hold small booklets. Several wear name badges on their shirts, and some have tilak and garlands. A figure in a light robe stands at the far upper left, and the back wall shows carved wooden panels and a red digital clock. The gathering appears to be a satsang or discourse audience.

Several sit cross-legged taking notes on pink paper and holding pens, and some wear name badges with photos. Stage lighting, a truss and speakers frame the scene, and a camera rig stands at left. No speaker or central figure is clearly visible from this angle, so no a person candidate is identified.
