A photograph of an evening satsang held outdoors in a courtyard of paved tiles. On the right, a man in orange-red robes with a mala of beads and a sandalwood-marked forehead sits on an orange cushioned throne-like chair, speaking with one hand raised; the appearance is consistent with the candidate described on the page but identity is uncertain. Behind him stand a man in an orange and gold dhoti and a man in white. Seated on the floor facing him are about ten devotees, mostly men in white, grey and striped shirts, with one woman in white at the centre. To the left, a row of gilded bronze deity and attendant murti figures stands on pedestals. Strings of green and purple tinsel decorate the glass-walled building behind, and a dark car is parked near the entrance.

A man with bare upper body and a garland of flowers sits in a large orange-upholstered armchair, seemingly leading discourse. A brass oil lamp stands on a table covered with orange cloth and flowers. Seated devotees in white, checked and striped shirts fill the foreground, while standing men in white dhotis and orange robes line the background beside decorated golden deity murtis and a green-and-gold palanquin or ratha. Green tinsel and pink decorations frame the left side. A poster-like corner logo appears at the top left.2014-10-02October 02 20142014-10-02Evening satsang held outdoors on a paved courtyard with pink petals scattered on the ground. A man in a maroon-red robe with orange-gold borders and a white forehead band sits on a large orange leather armchair, wearing a white and orange flower garland and holding a stick to his mouth. Seated on the floor before him, facing him, are a group of about a dozen men in white shirts and dhotis and checked shirts, some with hands folded in devotion. To the left stands a standing figure in an orange-saffron robe, and a gold deity statue is visible in the foreground left. Behind, a dark car, tinsel and colourful festoons decorate the entrance and a green shrine backdrop.2014-10-02June 11 20142014-06-11A photograph of a room with a plain white wall and thatched ceiling where a row of brass and gold-toned deity murti statues are arranged on a white-draped table and floor. On the right, a figure in an orange turban and orange robes, with long dark hair, gestures toward the statues; the orange-robed figure is a probable Swamiji by appearance, with distinctive saffron clothing and long hair. Beside him, a man in a red and gold shawl and red dhoti stands facing the statues, and another man in a red-and-gold bag stands behind. Three more men stand at the left edge in white shirts and green-striped shirt, one in a white dhoti.2006-12-20June 29 20122012-06-29A photograph inside a large open workshop with a corrugated metal roof, where rows of golden bronze deity murti and statues sit on red-draped tables and along the floor. A man in a rust-orange and saffron dhoti and shawl with a marigold garland and rudraksha mala stands with his arm extended toward the statues, gesturing as he explains them. Beside him a bald man in orange robes holds a red cloth, and a man in white dhoti with a sacred thread stands nearby. A crowd of devotees in white and orange clothing stands behind a metal chain barrier, and a steel tripod frame hangs overhead. The a person candidate is the central figure with long swept-back hair, a garland and orange clothing, but his appearance is not conclusive enough to confirm identity, so he is described by role only.2014-08-24
