A bearded man with long dark hair wearing an orange-saffron shawl over an orange dhoti walks barefoot down the centre of a striped multicoloured mat, holding a long wooden staff. Rows of standing participants on both sides press their palms together in anjali, many in black t-shirts and white pants. Behind them, a white tent has colourful pennant bunting overhead, and a cameraman stands near a raised platform. A man on the floor lies on a mat at right, and a red bag sits at lower right.

December 16 20162016-12-16Photograph of a yoga session in a large tented hall with red floor and colourful striped mats laid in rows. A man in an orange-saffron robe and dhoti walks down the central aisle between mats, with long dark hair and a forehead mark; his cues are ordinary saffron monastic dress without distinctive ornaments, so identity is uncertain. Surrounding participants in black and red tops, shorts and white clothes stand with palms pressed together in anjali greeting, some barefoot. A white statue or figure and hanging red and orange decorations appear in the background. Several dozen people are visible.2016-12-15December 17 20162016-12-17A photograph of a yoga session under a tented pavilion decorated with hanging colourful tassels. At centre, a bearded man with long dark hair wears a saffron-orange robe and walks barefoot across a striped rug, smiling. Around him participants stand with palms pressed together in namaste, many in black tops and trousers, others in white shirts, brown trousers and bare-chested with shorts. A woman in a black top kneels on a mat, and a standing fan and a statue are visible at the back. Colourful striped mats cover the floor. Because the page names a person as present but the central figure's appearance shows only a saffron robe and long hair with no decisive cues, the identity remains uncertain.2016-12-15December 15 20162016-12-15December 17 20162016-12-17December 15 20162016-12-15A barefoot man in an orange-saffron shawl and dhoti walks down the center aisle of a yoga hall, carrying a wooden walking staff, with a tilak on his forehead and long dark hair. He is flanked by rows of participants on colorful striped mats who stand with palms pressed together in namaste, most wearing black, grey and white clothing. Some participants lie on mats in the background, and a red bag rests on the floor at right. A red-cushioned throne and a deity statue appear in the background. The page flags Swamiji as present, and his figure shows distinctive saffron robes and long hair, so this is a probable Swamiji appearance, shown walking the aisle as participants greet him.2016-12-16December 15 20162016-12-15December 17 20162016-12-17December 16 20162016-12-16December 15 20162016-12-15
