Photograph of an seated audience in a bright hall with cream tiled floor, most people on red-cushioned black plastic chairs facing away from the camera toward an unseen speaker. Foreground: a man in white kurta with wristwatch and beard, beside a man in white shirt with a visitor badge, then a man in a purple polo shirt with a yellow cloth at his waist and black trousers, and a barefoot man in a light blue shirt and olive trousers. Further back a man in an orange-red shirt with a red scarf and others in white and pastel clothes. No speaker or a person is visible in the frame.

A seated congregation of men fills a hall for a satsang, with rows of devotees sitting on the floor in front of the viewer. Most wear white shirts and white dhotis, while one man in the foreground wears a rust-brown shirt and another in the middle wears a blue-and-white checked shirt. Several men have sacred ash or tilak marks on their foreheads. A woman in a red and orange sari sits near the left edge behind metal stanchions, and red plastic chairs line the back of the room alongside a blue chair on the right. The scene is a crowded, attentive audience during a discourse.

A photograph of a seated audience in a plain room with terracotta floor tiles, red-cushioned chairs and a yellow curtain at left. In the foreground a smiling man in a white-and-blue striped shirt sits with hands loosely clasped, and beside him a man in a white shirt and white dhoti with a black beaded mala and pendant listens with hands open. Behind them others in white shirts with lanyards clap or smile. The people face a presenter out of frame, and the scene shows a satsang-style gathering.

A seated audience in a hall with cream walls and framed pictures, most attendees in white or light shirts and dhotis, facing forward toward an unseen speaker. In the foreground five men sit in black chairs with red seat cushions: on the left a man in a white kurta with a rudraksha-style mala, next a man in an orange shirt holding a phone, then a man in a pink checked shirt with a wristwatch, a man in a grey t-shirt with a white bead bracelet and necklace, and on the right a man in a maroon shirt with a name badge and white dhoti with blue border. Another person stands in the background near a doorway. No identifiable figure in the scene is a person, so the scene shows only devotees.
