A large yoga session in a hall with red walls and red floor mats, where many participants in dark and white clothing perform asanas on striped and coloured mats. A large screen at upper left shows a bare-chested figure with a trident. On the stage at the back, a deity murti stands in a decorated shrine with brass lamps and a red throne-like seat is set near the centre-right. Some people stand with arms raised, others sit cross-legged or bend forward. Printed text reads only in the corner credit, which is omitted.

A large hall with cream tiled floor and red curtains, where dozens of participants sit in a seated forward-bend yoga posture on beige mats, many bare-backed in black trousers, with hands clasped behind or in front. Two wall screens show a live feed and a mountain landscape image. At the far end, a robed figure in saffron-orange sits on a raised platform in front of a backdrop, with camera operators on tripods filming. A standing figure in orange and a small statue stand near the stage. Brass bells sit on the floor among the mats.

A large hall with a white glossy floor and red drapes shows many bare-chested men seated cross-legged on yellow mats, seen from behind, wearing black dhoti-style shorts and white sacred threads. Near the front, a figure in saffron-orange robes sits on a raised platform beside a glowing deity murti with a halo, flanked by golden statues. A camera operator films the stage. A woman in a green sari and a standing woman in orange stand at the right, and a white-haired man in a dark shirt sits in the foreground. Two large screens display video of robed figures. Lamps and a golden kalasha-like decor complete the setting.

A large indoor hall full of seated yoga practitioners on colourful striped mats, many dressed in black t-shirts and black garments, some wearing gold necklaces and bangles. Several participants sit cross-legged with eyes closed or heads bowed, while others lie or stretch. A large screen at the back shows a live image of a similar crowd, with red chairs stacked along the right wall and white curtains behind. Plastic water bottles sit on the mats in front. No single person can be identified as a leader, and no identifiable a person figure is visible among the participants.

A large indoor hall with a crowd of many people seated on the floor in black clothing, many on colourful mats in blue, green, yellow and red, facing a stage at the front. On the stage, several people in orange and red garments tend a red-draped table and a central area, and a large screen behind shows a cave-like scene with figures. Orange-robed attendants move among the seated crowd, and red, yellow and magenta drapes frame the hall. Small lamps or candles are set out near the front rows. The people are seated in meditation-style postures.

A large hall with polished reflective floors where a crowd of devotees in white clothes sits cross-legged on pink and red mats facing a raised stage. On the stage, a figure in orange and saffron robes sits on an ornate golden throne-style seat before a golden-framed backdrop depicting a deity murti with multiple arms. A large screen on the left shows a live feed of the speaker, and a camera on a tripod records the satsang. Many attendees are seated in rows, with a group of women in colourful saris on the right side of the hall.

A large hall with a grey floor where many people sit on coloured yoga mats in rows, facing a raised stage at the far end. Most wear white clothes, with yellow shawls draped over shoulders, and one seated person in front wears an orange shawl. Mats are blue, teal, grey and green, printed with Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam logos. On the stage a gold-coloured ornate throne-like chair sits in front of a dark red curtain with fringed valance. Two projection screens, white banners, and hanging decorative cloth panels are visible; the ceiling is white fabric. Participants appear to be attending a seated session, with some holding papers.

A photograph of a hall with polished white floor where many participants sit kneeling and cross-legged on blue, brown and black mats in rows, several with hands pressed together or resting on knees, facing the same direction. Foreground: a man in a black t-shirt and black trousers sits on a purple mat at right; a man in white shirt and dark sarong kneels with palms joined on a brown mat at left-centre; metal dumbbells and a blue water bottle lie near the front. Participants wear black and white clothing. Maroon curtains, colourful woven banners and metal stanchions line the room. The scene suggests a meditation or yoga session at an ashram-style hall.
