A photograph of a satsang-style seated gathering. In the foreground a man with long swept-back hair, a red bindi, and a shawl over a white garment with gold border sits with eyes closed, wearing a dark rudraksha mala and gold bracelets with dark armbands. Behind him, several seated men in white dhoti-style clothes with white forehead markings and grey-beaded necklaces sit on red cushions, with a row of red chairs in the background. Brass ritual vessels and offerings sit on a mat at lower left. Count of visible people is about nine.

A photograph of a large hall with seated devotees on mats. In the foreground, three men sit cross-legged with palms joined in prayer, wearing white dhotis with orange-gold borders and red rudraksha malas. The man on the far left has long hair tied back, a bare chest with bead armbands, and an orange-gold shawl. The centre man has white hair and a white forehead mark. The man on the right wears glasses, a white shawl with gold border, and a red mala, with tripundra markings on his forehead. Behind them rows of seated devotees, some in orange and white clothing, sit in a bright hall with framed wall artwork. No candidate can be confidently matched to the named teacher from appearance alone, so the identity is left unsure.

A seated group of devotees sits cross-legged on a white marble floor in a banquet hall with white chairs and orange-and-maroon tablecloths behind them. Several men wear rudraksha malas and white dhotis with gold borders, and some have white ash markings on their foreheads and arms. A man in the front center has a shaved head and white forehead markings. A long-haired man on the right wears rudraksha malas and a white dhoti, and a man in orange robes sits at left. Their hands rest on their laps in meditative posture, and the seated devotees appear attentive. No one in the image is clearly identifiable as a person.

A seated man in white ritual clothing with a gold border and a rudraksha mala, a white forehead tilak and white body markings, sits with palms pressed together in namaste and eyes closed. Behind him, a large hall holds devotees in orange and cream clothing, two men in pink and white, and many more people seated in prayer or satsang. The setting is a blurred temple-like hall with warm lighting.

A photograph of a seated group of about a dozen devotees in a hall with orange-draped tables and white chairs. Several men sit on the floor in white dhotis with gold borders, bare-chested, wearing rudraksha malas and white ash stripes on their foreheads and arms. Two men in the front row wear orange-red shawls over bare shoulders. A man in the centre has palms pressed together in prayer. A younger man near the front has long dark hair and a white forehead mark. Nobody in the scene is clearly identifiable as a person, so no candidate is marked as present.

A photograph of a seated meditation session in a bright hall with red floor mats and red curtains. Many devotees sit cross-legged with eyes closed and hands in laps. In the foreground, a man in a white dhoti with gold border and a bare upper body sits with hands folded, beside a shaved-headed man in an orange garment and a man in a pink kurta with a rudraksha mala seated with bowed head. Other participants wear white and orange clothing, and a woman in white sits further back. Metal stanchions and chains separate the mat areas. Nothing in the frame establishes a specific a person presence, so no candidate is identified.

Brass lamps, offering plates and small bowls lie on the mat in front, and the blurred crowd of seated devotees extends into the background.
