A woman in a light top and other people move through the space. Carved stone pillars and a red curtain frame the left side.2012-08-02A photograph of an outdoor satsang on a courtyard with orange-red walls and a corrugated roof. A standing-to-seated figure in saffron-orange cloth, long swept-back dark hair and a white flower garland sits on an ornate gold-carved throne with a red cushion, with a golden peetha-style lectern in front. Seated around him are devotees in white and cream saris and white dhotis, some holding brass plates and vessels, a woman in a yellow-bordered sari, and a shaven-headed priest in orange robes with a mala at the left edge. Brass lamps and a brass kalasha stand at the right near a railing, with steel flasks on the floor. The scene reads as a morning satsang with devotees attending the discourse.2010-11-01July 22 20102010-07-22December 21 20102010-12-21October 06 20112011-10-06A photograph of a temple courtyard with an orange-painted wall and corrugated roof.

Behind them a deity murti in a decorated arch, garlanded with flowers, is displayed. Rows of brass pots stand on the floor, and red carpets cover the foreground. Some women in saris stand in the background.2010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12A padapuja gathering in an orange-walled courtyard hall.
