A seated figure in pink and white sits before a gold-and-white deity murti with garlands. Several camera operators and a figure in white stand at the edges of the stage. The room has gold-framed panels and drapery in the background.2015-12-10A large indoor satsang in a temple-style hall with a red draped backdrop. On a raised stage, a seated figure in orange and red sits before a microphone stand, flanked by ornate silver and gold shrines holding deity murtis, including a seated Shiva-type murti and other decorated images. A dense audience sits on the floor in white clothes with red shoulder cloths, some in yellow, and a few with shaved heads. Cameras on tripods film from the sides. The seated figure in orange has long hair and a red-orange garment, but appearance is uncertain, so identity is unconfirmed.2015-09-17A large tented hall during a ceremony on a raised stage with a golden temple-style shrine decorated with marigold and flower garlands. Dozens of women in white and cream saris and some in orange and coral clothing sit cross-legged on the floor in rows facing the stage; a few have long braids. On the stage, a priest in white clothes performs ritual worship before a deity murti, and an attendant in white stands at the side. Two large screens on either side show close-up images, including a man in a saffron-coloured head covering. Camera operators with tripods and cameras film the proceedings, and a light stand stands at the left.2013-04-21A large crowd of devotees sits on the floor of a hall facing a lit altar decorated with golden and red drapery and strings of lights. At the centre of the altar, a seated figure in orange robes is flanked by ornate golden deity murti and a bull statue. Many men in white dhoti and shawls, some bare-chested with sacred threads, sit in rows, with others in orange and red garments. Camera operators on tripods film the proceedings, and a screen above the altar shows a picture. Near the right wall, a large decorated kalasha or shrine piece stands beside a seated devotee. The scene suggests a satsang or puja in an ashram hall.2017-12-02
