A satsang in a hall with dark blue curtains. A man seated on a golden throne with red cushions and garlands of red, yellow and green flowers wears a yellow robe, a gold necklace and a rudraksha-style mala, and is the central figure; the page flags him as a person, but the appearance cues are not distinctive enough to confirm, so he is described by role only. Around him on an orange and purple mat, about two dozen seated devotees in white dhotis and shawls, saffron-striped cloths and saris listen; several sit with hands folded in anjali. Microphones stand in the foreground, and small brass plates with offerings sit before the throne.

A satsang hall with a dark blue curtain backdrop. A seated figure in a yellow robe and rudraksha-style necklaces sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with a multicoloured floral garland and a red cushion, a person presence. Foreground devotees in orange and white ritual clothes sit on orange and purple mats, several with palms joined in namaskar. Two men in orange and gold-bordered shawls sit at microphones on the left, one with a shaved head. Offerings in brass dishes and small plates lie on the orange mat. Multiple seated devotees, including women in white and red saris, face the throne.2010-12-23December 23 20102010-12-23December 23 20102010-12-23December 23 20102010-12-23A satsang on a stage before a dark draped curtain. A seated figure on a gold-framed throne with a large arch of multicoloured flower garlands wears a yellow-gold dhoti and a beaded mala necklace, hands resting in lap; the figure's appearance is consistent with a person, though the face is not clearly distinguishable at this distance. Around the throne, a semicircle of seated devotees in white dhotis and shawls, and women in saris, face the throne on the low platform. A brass oil lamp and small offerings sit at the front edge. Gold-finished side stands flank the throne, and a microphone stand is at left.2010-12-23A photograph of a seated satsang in a hall with blue curtains. A man in red robes with a long gold-and-white garland sits on an ornate golden throne decorated with a floral arch of marigolds, roses and green leaves. Seated before him on the orange floor are devotees in white and saffron: a shaved-headed man in an orange-saffron shawl, a woman in a yellow-bordered white sari with folded hands, and a bald man in white dhoti with folded hands at the right. Microphones stand on the floor. A projector sits at left.2010-12-22December 22 20102010-12-22A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala and long swept-back hair sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, a gold trident and gold staff beside him. Probable Swamiji is the central figure; the appearance cues are the saffron robes, rudraksha mala and long hair. Around the throne, a group of devotees sits on the floor in white dhotis and white or red-bordered shawls, with a plate of offerings, flowers and a kalasha-like brass vessel placed before them. A woman in yellow and a woman in red-bordered white sit to the right, and a bearded man in white participates in a puja-style offering. Walls are draped in garlands of marigold and rose, with a deity murti and oil lamps visible at the left edge. The setting is a hall with a sheer curtain and tiled floor, consistent with satsang or puja.2010-11-14A photograph of a satsang on a raised stage with a dark navy curtain behind. A man with long dark hair, wearing an orange-saffron cloth and a rudraksha mala, sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, hands joined. Seated on an orange and purple mat in front of him are a shaved-headed man in white ritual cloth, several women in cream, white and orange saris, and two young men in white dhoti at left, one holding a microphone. Brass plates and a small bell lie on the mat. At far left stands a golden deity murti in orange and red garments with a garland. The seated throne figure is a probable Swamiji in an appearance-based sense, with long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha cues.2010-12-31A satsang on a stage before a dark curtain. A man in a saffron-yellow robe with a large orange-beaded mala sits on a gold throne decorated with a semicircular garland of yellow, white and red flowers, hands resting in his lap. Around the stage, about a dozen people sit on the floor in white dhotis and shawls, some in red and maroon saris, one woman in a green-and-red sari; two men at left wear red cloth. Small oil lamps flicker on the stage edge. A tripod camera stands at right and a few heads are visible in the audience at the bottom. The scene reads as a discourse with an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate seated on the throne, with the page noting the event as a Couples Day satsang.2010-12-23December 23 20102010-12-23December 22 20102010-12-22
