A photograph of a seated session in an indoor hall with dark blue curtains and a raised stage. On an ornate gold throne in the centre sits a figure in orange robes, with brass lamps on either side and potted plants on the stage. Facing the stage, a large audience of mostly men in white shirts, dark jackets and colourful tops sits on chairs, some with their backs to the camera, and one man in a blue shirt is in the foreground. Speakers and a camera on a tripod stand at the right edge. The figure in orange on the throne is an appearance-based a person candidate: orange robes and a seated position on a throne, though the cues are not distinctive enough to confirm identity.

In the foreground, rows of seated women in white clothes and some in orange and dark saris sit on red mats, facing the throne.

On a raised stage, a robed figure in saffron-orange clothing sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, facing the audience. A large backdrop shows a painted temple scene with a deity image, and a decorative tasselled banner hangs on the right. A microphone stand, camera tripod, speaker and a standing fan are placed near the stage. The seated audience includes people in white and light ritual clothing and others in orange and pink shirts. Appearance cues including the saffron robe and ornate throne suggest the seated figure is a person, giving a discourse.2010-10-20November 05 20112011-11-05A wide photograph of an indoor hall where a large audience sits in rows of black chairs facing a stage. On the stage, a figure in orange robes sits on an ornate golden throne with a red and gold cushion, flanked by a white podium and small lamps. Behind the stage hang a teal and white draped backdrop and tall cylindrical banners in red, yellow and blue. Many attendees wear white, pink, and orange clothing, and a few wear dark tops. Cameras on tripods are set up near the front, and a banner reads 'Enlightenment Process' in part. The stage figure's orange robes and throne cannot be matched to a clear candidate from appearance alone, so the identity is uncertain.2010-08-24December 02 20102010-12-02
