A central figure sits on an ornate golden throne with a red cushion under a red and gold canopy, wearing orange robes, holding a microphone and speaking. Attendants in white dhotis and rudraksha malas stand at the left behind him.

A man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing an orange-red robe, a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace, sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a golden trident beside him; he is probable Swamiji. Around him, seated devotees in white and maroon clothes with red shawls hold silver thalis with flowers and oil lamps, and a garlanded deity murti sits behind them. Several people are seated on the floor in the foreground, many with long hair and red shawls, performing padapuja offerings.2014-12-29July 12 20162016-07-12May 27 20152015-05-27July 12 20162016-07-12October 19 20152015-10-19Photograph of a large indoor satsang hall with red drapes and a gold-ornate throne in the foreground.

Surrounding him, devotees sit on the floor in white and orange clothing with red-orange shawls; one woman in white holds a brass plate with offerings. Several people in the middle distance wear saffron shawls, and a figure in a red turban and garland sits at the right back near a stage with a laptop and brass lamps. Partially visible heads fill the lower foreground.2015-05-27May 27 20152015-05-27May 27 20152015-05-27A seated figure in a tall brown leather throne-style chair addresses a large seated audience in a hall with gold patterned wall panels. The figure wears a red-orange turban, a saffron-orange robe, a long ornate beaded necklace and a rudraksha mala, and holds a golden trident-topped staff beside the chair. Around the chair, rows of devotees sit on the floor in white clothes with red-orange shawls; many have long dark hair in braids, and some wear white saris or dresses. A small microphone stand sits in front of the chair. The probable Swamiji appearance cues here are the red-orange turban, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and ornate necklace, consistent with a teacher seated for a question-and-answer session.2015-07-12
