Group photo of about two dozen people posing indoors in a hotel-style meeting room with cream walls, wall sconces and a dark blank board. Seated centre-front, a figure in a saffron-orange robe and orange head wrap wears a long rudraksha mala and smiles, the most distinctive figure in the group. Others in white kurtas, white saris, a green sari and a pink-lavender sari surround him, some kneeling on patterned carpet and others standing behind. Appearance-based label: a person for the saffron-robed central figure, identified by the orange head wrap, saffron robe and rudraksha mala, with the page's a person flag; the rest appear to be devotees.

A photograph of a seated group of devotees in a hotel-style meeting room with patterned carpet, sitting on the floor in a circle during a meditation or satsang session. Many people wear white clothing; one woman in the foreground wears an orange sari with green border, another wears a blue shawl over white. A man in the foreground seen from behind wears a white shirt with a red shawl and a gold necklace, facing the group with yellow flowers and a small brass plate nearby. Chairs and a banner-like backdrop are visible in the background, and a bald man in an orange shawl sits among the group. The page's photo credit is watermarked across the lower right, which is omitted.

A large group photo of about 35 people posed indoors in front of a wrought-iron arched bench-like frame and a leopard-print cushioned seat. At the centre sits a figure with long dark swept-back hair, wearing an orange-saffron robe, orange shawl and a red rudraksha mala, seated cross-legged on a red cushion with one hand raised. Around him, devotees in white kurtas, saffron and yellow saris, and a child in white stand or sit.

Group photograph of about thirty people posed around a central seated figure on a leopard-print-draped bed or platform beneath a wrought-iron headboard. The central figure has long dark hair, wears an orange-saffron robe and a rudraksha mala, and sits cross-legged with hands folded; the person's appearance is consistent with a person, seated as the honoured central figure. Around him, women wear saris and salwar kameez in orange, white, teal and yellow; men in white kurtas, dark t-shirts and striped shirts stand behind. A young child in white sits at right. Seated on a dark blue carpet in the foreground, participants smile at the camera, with a folded plaid cloth at the bottom edge.

A seated group of roughly thirty to forty people in white ritual clothing and rudraksha malas fills a hall with patterned carpet, sitting in a semicircle around a white-draped table. On the table are a brass oil lamp with a golden swan-shaped ornament and a vase of pink and white chrysanthemums. A man in white kneels at the lower left near the lamp. A woman in a long dark hair and orange-striped shawl stands at the right speaking into a microphone, facing the seated group. A woman in a green shawl sits in the centre of the group with hands folded. Background tables and chairs are visible.

A group photograph of devotees in white ritual clothing posed around a seated figure on a gold-and-brown throne decorated with white flower garlands and a golden canopy. The central seated figure wears an orange-saffron robe with a white flower garland and a red pompom at the knee, and raises one hand in blessing. Around them, men in white shirts and dhotis and women in white saris with gold borders stand and kneel, several wearing rudraksha malas and name badges. A red patterned carpet lies in front, with a silver bowl of fruit, a silver urn and brass vessels. A kneeling boy at lower center holds his hands in anjali. The backdrop is draped in red and white fabric, with a floral wreath across the top of the throne.
