Beside him, a smiling man in white sleeveless kurta with gold border claps. Behind them, a man in a rust-red quilted jacket sits among others in white, and figures in saffron-orange garments are visible in the back row. A small oil lamp, a brass bowl and a plate with orange flowers rest on the mat in front. The photo is a crowd of devotees gathered for a satsang session.2012-09-09A large seated congregation fills a hall at a Kumbh Mela camp, many people in white dhotis and shirts with red-and-white saffron-striped shawls draped over their shoulders. Several men press palms together in namaste or hold hands folded in prayer, and a few wear wooden rudraksha malas. In the foreground a man in an orange-saffron robe with a rudraksha mala and white necklace sits facing forward. Floor mats in red, green and striped patterns cover the ground, and ornate gold deity shrines and decorations appear in the background.

Most wear white dhotis and white shirts, while others wear orange or saffron cloth and rudraksha malas, and several have white vibhuti or tilak marks on their foreheads and bodies. Some devotees have their hands folded in anjali mudra, and a few appear to be clapping. Wooden chairs and wooden doors are visible in the background. No individual can be confidently identified as the a person from appearance alone, so the people are described by role and attire only.2017-06-21July 01 20122012-07-01September 05 20122012-09-05A seated satsang gathering in a hall with cream walls and wooden doors. In the centre, a man with long braided hair, bare-chested except for a white shawl and rudraksha mala, sits with palms pressed together, tears on his face. Nearby devotees wear white dhotis with gold borders, orange robes and rudraksha malas; a bald man in white sits at the right. Around the room many people sit on mats or chairs, some on the back row in white and green. The a person cue is the long braided hair with the shawl and mala, but his face is not visible enough to confirm this. Many people are visible, roughly 40 seated and standing across the frame.2017-07-23April 21 20182018-04-21September 10 20122012-09-10
