Wide view from the back of a hall filled with seated devotees on red carpet and rows of red-cushioned gold-framed chairs. Most attendees wear white clothes with orange or saffron shawls. In the foreground a man in white stands with his back to the camera, and a woman in an orange head wrap sits to the left. On the stage a large painted backdrop shows deities, with a decorated deity murti and a lit lamp display in front of ornate gold pillars. A projection screen on the right shows a figure in red and gold. Chandeliers hang from the ceiling, and a small blue and white logo appears at the upper left. No individual identifiable as a person is clearly visible on stage, so the appearance is uncertain. The scene looks like a satsang gathering.2015-10-22A photo of a seated ritual gathering in a large hall with red walls, purple patterned panels and recessed ceiling lights. Dozens of people sit on the floor and in rows of red-cushioned chairs, many wearing saffron or orange robes and white clothing. In the foreground, rows of attendees in white and orange face a seated figure at the right, who wears orange robes and sits on an ornate gold throne near a red carpet, with brass vessels and orange cloth-draped tables nearby. Banners with printed photos line the back wall, and a small display panel stands on an easel. Across the room, people sit in front of the banners and a white floral tree stands at the far right. The scene suggests a ceremonial session, with visible raised platform and offerings.2015-10-23October 22 20152015-10-22October 26 20152015-10-26October 23 20152015-10-23A large crowd of devotees sits on mats and cushions inside a decorated tent hall hung with colourful striped and bell-shaped paper streamers and lanterns. At the far end, a central figure in orange-saffron robes sits on a raised red seat in front of a golden deity murti and a large screen. Many attendees wear white, red and orange clothing, and several carry bags. Two large screens display close-up views of the stage. A few people in the front row are seen from behind; the crowd is too dense to count precisely.2016-12-17October 26 20152015-10-26October 23 20152015-10-23October 23 20152015-10-23A wide photograph of a large hall filled with a seated audience, many on mats and floor cushions facing a raised stage. Several people in the front rows wear orange and saffron robes, some with long matted hair, and others wear white ritual clothes. Behind the stage hang a red curtain and a large painted backdrop with a deity figure, and a smaller framed image flanks the stage. Ceiling lights, a camera on a tripod and red drapes line the room, and banners hang on the side walls. No speaker can be identified with confidence in this view.2016-08-28December 17 20162016-12-17July 02 20172017-07-02
