A large seated audience fills a hall at an indoor programme, with many rows of attendees in white, pink, yellow and blue clothing, many wearing name badges on lanyards. Most visible people are women in sarees and salwar kameez, some wearing glasses and gold necklaces, and many men in white shirts sit among them. White draped fabric decorates the ceiling and back wall, and a pink banner is partly visible at the top. No one is clearly standing on stage and no a person candidate is visible in this crowd shot.

A large seated congregation fills a hall decorated with strands of orange and white flower garlands and string lights hanging from the ceiling. Most devotees wear white or pastel clothing, many with rudraksha malas; several women in white saris and a woman in a red-patterned sari sit with hands pressed in prayer or raised in gesture. Children in yellow shirts and boys with rudraksha beads sit in the front rows. No a person candidate is visible in the frame. The setting resembles a satsang or puja gathering during a birthday celebration.

A large seated crowd of devotees, mostly women in white and pastel saris, fills an indoor hall during an evening ritual. Foreground women wear yellow, brown, lavender and pink saris with gold bangles, a small boy in a striped top sits at lower right, and a lavender-sari woman holds prayer beads. A blue barrier rope runs across the crowd, and a balcony with more seated devotees is visible behind. No clearly identifiable a person figure is visible in this view, so the presence of a leader cannot be confirmed from the image.

A large seated congregation fills a hall, with many people in white and cream garments and some in orange or red-toned clothing, many with eyes closed or attentive expressions. In the foreground, blurred figures sit closest to the camera, one man in a saffron-coloured cloth and a woman with a long braid in white. The setting appears to be a satsang or Guru Purnima gathering, and no clearly identifiable a person candidate is visible among the seated devotees.

A dense night crowd of devotees seated on the floor at an evening satsang. Many women wear white saris with orange or red borders, some with gold-bordered white saris and rudraksha malas, and several wear sindoor or vibhuti marks on the forehead. Behind them, men in white shirts and trousers stand watching, and a decorated deity murti with a blue-and-purple draped cloth stands at the right edge beside a red-draped platform. Colored string lights glow in the background. The image is a photo of the gathered audience.

A crowd of devotees sits on a polished stone floor inside a temple hall with tall carved stone pillars. A man standing near the centre left wears a white shirt and white dhoti and holds his arms folded.
