Outdoor photo of a line of devotees standing with palms pressed together in anjali mudra. Most wear white shirts and white dhotis or trousers; a man in front has a vibhuti or tilak mark on his forehead, and a foreground man at right wears a dark hooded sweatshirt. Some wear lanyard-style cords around their necks. Behind them stand grey stone pillars or memorial structures and green foliage, with a paved pathway at left. Several people stand with hands folded in front of them. The scene suggests a group prayer or satsang gathering before a shrine, with no clearly identifiable central figure visible.

A photograph of a row of men standing outdoors with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed or lowered, in a meditative prayer posture. Most wear white collared shirts and white dhotis or trousers; one older man has a vibhuti or ash mark on his forehead and a white dhoti with a gold border. A younger man at right wears a black hooded jacket and glasses. Behind them stand white marble or stone sculptures and trees, and a red structure is visible at the right edge. Several men are partly cut off at the frame edges. The scene suggests a guided meditation or satsang session.

Outdoor photo of a long row of young men and some older men standing in a dusty open yard under shady trees, hands pressed together in anjali mudra with heads bowed, as in prayer or salutation. Most wear white or light shirts with dark blue trousers and belts; others wear checked or plaid shirts, and a few wear khaki or light trousers. Several sandals lie on the ground in the foreground. A building with a window stands behind the trees. The crowd is dense and extends beyond the frame.

Outdoor photo of a large crowd standing with palms pressed together in anjali mudra at a garden setting under tall green trees and shrubs. Most visible people are men in white, cream and pastel shirts and trousers, with several women in white, blue and pink salwar or saree-style dress in the background. Many are looking forward with eyes closed or lowered, appearing to pray. A date stamp reads 12 10 2006 in the lower right, and a copyright notice is printed in the lower right corner. No individual is clearly identifiable as a person; no candidate is visible in this crowd photo. The scene resembles a devotional gathering during the Maheshwara Puja at AadiKailaasa, Bidadi.

Outdoor photo of a row of men standing with palms pressed together in anjali mudra at chest height, apparently in prayer or meditation. Most wear plain white shirts and white dhotis or trousers; one elderly man in front has a vertical tilak mark on his forehead and a rudraksha-style neck cord with a badge. A younger man in a black hooded sweatshirt and glasses stands at right. Behind them stand rows of pale carved stone sculptures and green trees. No visible figure wearing saffron, long swept-back hair with ornate gold necklaces, or a crown is present, so no a person candidate is identified.

Outdoor photo of a group of about ten men standing on an orange tarpaulin in front of an orange-painted building with a tin roof and a red brick compound wall. They stand with palms pressed together in anjali mudra. The man at front left wears a yellow-and-white checked shirt with a white dhoti; beside him a man in a brown shirt, a man in a checked shirt, and a man in a light blue shirt and dark trousers stand with hands folded. At right, a man in a white shirt and white trousers holds his hands together, and a man in a grey shirt stands nearby. Some attendees wear name badges. A white-clad figure kneels on the ground at the lower left, and bags of waste lie on the dirt behind them.

A photograph of a group of about nine men standing outdoors in prayer pose with palms pressed together at the chest, on an orange-brown mat and a dirt ground.
