Two rows of devotees stand at attention in an aisle: women in saris and salwar kameez on the left, men in white shirts, cream trousers and one in a checked shirt on the right; a man at right wears a pendant necklace and an ID badge. Behind them, more people in white ritual clothes stand in rows. Orange and yellow flower decorations hang along the back wall beside framed banners.2006-12-15A large white tented hall with red and maroon drapery along the ceiling edges and green carpet on the floor. Many men stand in rows, barefoot, wearing white shirts, dhotis or grey trousers, with white cloth blindfolds tied over their eyes, performing a group meditation practice. Some wear lanyards with name badges and a few wear plain beige or patterned shirts. Draped curtains line the back wall and fans hang from the tent frame. No single robed teacher stands out in the visible frame, and no identifiable a person figure is visible among the participants.2006-11-25December 17 20062006-12-17June 17 20172017-06-17A large outdoor tented gathering with a red and white striped drape backdrop and a decorated canopy overhead. Rows of seated women and girls in white, pink, blue, yellow and green saris and salwar kameez sit on a green mat, while a row of standing young men in white and pastel shirts lines the back. White pillars wrapped with gold-coloured garlands frame the tent. On the right, older men in white dhotis and shirts sit on white plastic chairs, one wearing a rudraksha-style necklace. Many people are visible, mostly seated in attentive audience posture.2007-02-06A photograph of a row of men standing outdoors with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed or lowered, in a meditative prayer posture. Most wear white collared shirts and white dhotis or trousers; one older man has a vibhuti or ash mark on his forehead and a white dhoti with a gold border. A younger man at right wears a black hooded jacket and glasses. Behind them stand white marble or stone sculptures and trees, and a red structure is visible at the right edge. Several men are partly cut off at the frame edges. The scene suggests a guided meditation or satsang session.2011-02-20November 25 20062006-11-25A large crowd of devotees sits in rows on white plastic chairs under a white tent with red and white striped bunting along its edges. Most men wear white shirts and some wear light blue or yellow shirts, with thin beaded or cord necklaces visible on several. Many have their heads bowed and hands folded or pressed together in prayer or meditation, while a few look up. The rows extend into the distance. No individual can be identified as the a person from the visible cues, so no candidate is recognized.2010-01-01December 31 20092009-12-31December 17 20062006-12-17
