A photograph of a large satsang hall with a crowd of devotees seated on white cloth facing a stage. Most attendees wear white dhoti-style garments with orange or saffron shawls draped over their shoulders, and several have shaved heads. A figure seated on an ornate golden throne sits at the centre of the stage, flanked by brass lamps, under a purple backdrop painted with figures. A large screen at upper right shows a close-up of the seated figure in red and white clothing. Camera tripods stand at the sides of the hall, and the white and red walls frame the scene.

A photograph of a seated audience in a hall facing a raised stage. Many attendees wear white clothing, with some in orange and other colours; several have long dark hair in braids or loose. On the stage, a figure in orange and red robes sits on an ornate gold throne-like seat decorated with a floral arch of orange and red flowers, with a golden table in front and microphones and lamps around. Ceiling fans, camera tripods and hanging colourful banners appear in the room, along with a dark curtain behind the stage.

A large indoor hall with deep red curtains hosts a seated assembly of many devotees, most in white ritual clothes, some in orange and saffron. At the centre, an ornate gold-and-brown throne stands on a raised platform beside a tall gold trident. A standing figure in a red turban and saffron-toned garment stands to the right of the throne, while attendants in white move among the crowd. Devotees sit with hands folded in namaskar, facing the throne. Hanging orange decorative lamps and stage speakers frame the scene, and cameras are visible at the edges.

A photograph taken from behind a large seated audience in a hall with dark red drapery and gold-panelled walls. On a raised stage, a figure in orange and red robes sits on a white throne-like chair decorated with red and orange garlands, flanked by ornate gold screens. Audience members in white, cream and orange clothing sit on the floor facing the stage; a few wear white head scarves. A large screen to the left shows a figure in red and white garments. Several video cameras on tripods are visible near the stage, and a water bottle sits on the floor at right. The stage figure appears to be a person, identified by the saffron robes, the throne setting and the garlanded seat, and is an appearance-based label only. The seated audience numbers in the dozens, roughly 21-100 people.

A large audience of seated participants, mostly in white and some in orange or saffron, faces a raised golden stage backed by a deep red curtain. On a golden throne flanked by lion-shaped armrests, a figure in saffron robes with a red head covering, rudraksha-style beads, and a white flower garland sits with a microphone stand before him. Two tall gold ornamental panels frame the throne. Camera tripods and lights stand at the sides of the stage. The scene is a discourse setting; a seated figure on the central throne is in the a person candidate role of the speaker, with the audience in rows below.

Photograph of a discourse hall with a red curtain backdrop and gold-carved side panels holding golden deity statues. On an ornate white silver throne-like seat under a canopy, a man in orange robes and an orange turban sits behind a lectern with a microphone, seemingly addressing the assembly. Rows of seated devotees fill the foreground, many in orange, saffron and white clothes, with some women wearing green and tan saris. A video camera on a tripod stands at left, and a second camera is at right. The man on the throne matches the page's a person description, but his face is too small to confirm, so the identification is only probable on appearance cues: orange robe, orange turban and a throne-like seat. Roughly 60 people are visible from behind.
