A photograph of a satsang hall with a large gold ornate throne on a raised stage in the background. A figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits on the throne beneath a golden canopy, with potted plants and brass lamps flanking it. A backdrop shows a cosmic blue and purple image of a planet. On the left, three musicians in white kurtas sit on a striped rug playing a harmonium, a flute and a tabla at microphones, beside a set of painted deity murtis. In the foreground, several devotees in white clothes with red shawls sit on white floor mats facing the stage, with a few older seated attendees in the right foreground. The seated figure on the throne is an appearance-based a person in saffron and orange ceremonial dress on a throne, but the cues are limited, so the identity is uncertain.2015-07-03September 07 20142014-09-07A photograph of a satsang with devotional singing at a hall with gold drapery behind a long white-covered table. Seated on the table are musicians and singers in white clothes with red-and-saffron shawls; one plays a tabla pair and another a harmonium, while a man in the centre with a shaved head and white dhoti presses palms together. Several women in white saris and shawls sing from books. In the foreground, men in white with red-orange shawls sit on the floor with hands folded, one with a forehead mark and rudraksha-style beads, and a red plastic container sits on the carpet. Approximately a dozen or more people are visible.2014-12-24December 24 20142014-12-24A group of six musicians sit cross-legged on a stage with colourful striped and patterned cloths, performing in front of ornate gold-coloured carved wooden panels and pillars.

Nine performers in rust and saffron-orange robes, rudraksha malas and white forehead markings sit behind sheets of music; one man at left plays a wooden dholak drum, and a woman in the centre holds a small red tambourine. Behind them is an ornate gold-leaf shrine façade with carved lions and floral reliefs, and framed portraits hang on the pale wall.
