A seated teacher in an orange robe sits on a white-draped throne-like seat on a raised stage, backed by deep red curtains, with a stage light and a camera on tripod at the side. Facing the stage, a large audience sits on orange mats and black plastic chairs, many women in white clothes, some in green, pink and blue. Hanging yellow and patterned fabric panels decorate the hall ceiling and ceiling fans turn overhead.

A photograph of a seated session in a hall with red velvet drapes and stage lights. A figure in orange robes sits on a large white throne-like chair on a raised platform, gesturing with one hand while speaking into a microphone. The seated figure has long dark hair and appears to be a probable Swamiji by appearance cues of long swept-back hair and saffron clothing, though the image is small and distant. Audience members in white clothes sit in rows of chairs in the foreground, many with hair tied back, some wearing beaded necklaces. Ceiling fans and a video camera on a tripod are visible at the sides.

A photograph of a discourse hall with an audience seated on the floor and in white plastic chairs, many wearing headphones for translation. On a raised stage at the far end, a figure in a saffron-orange robe sits on a low seat beside a person in white, both facing the crowd. The figure has a shaved head and appearance that is consistent with a person, but this is not established clearly enough to confirm identity. Ceiling fans hang above, and decorative banners with elephant motifs and a gold garland line the ceiling and stage curtain. A tripod-mounted camera stands at the side. Several audience members are in colourful salwar and sarees, others in white shirts.

A large hall audience of devotees in white clothes sits on the floor facing a stage with dark red drapes and ceiling fans. On a white throne-style seat with cushions, a person in an orange-saffron robe holds a microphone and speaks, with flower vases beside the seat. Another person in orange sits on the floor near the stage, and a camera on a tripod is in the foreground left. The scene reads as a meditation programme or satsang with an audience of many attendees.
