Indoor event photo in a large hall with a seated audience at left and a dense group around a raised golden throne-like seat at right. A long-haired, bare-chested man with a rudraksha mala sits on the gilded throne, with a second dark-haired man in an orange-and-white patterned shirt seated at lower left. Several women in saris and salwar kameez, one in blue with a red border and another in green, bend or kneel with offerings: fruit, a pomegranate-like plate, red petals and small oil lamps arranged on a tray. A large blue deity murti with a trident stands at right, garlanded with red flowers. Stage lights glow overhead and a cameraperson is visible at far right.

A photograph of a crowded indoor satsang hall where many devotees sit on the floor in white and red clothes. In the foreground, a seated man in a red-and-maroon dhoti and a bare upper body wears long hair swept back and a rudraksha mala with a golden ornament; he sits on a gold-trimmed throne beside a golden lion-form seat, and a tray of rudraksha malas, apples and a water bottle lies before him. Devotees in saris and white clothing hold small brass cups and kumkum-coloured offerings around a round tray of red flowers, and a woman in a green saree bends forward to offer something. A portrait photo and screens stand at the left, with a decorated altar of blue and gold to the right.2015-12-27December 27 20152015-12-27December 27 20152015-12-27December 27 20152015-12-27December 27 20152015-12-27A photograph of a padapuja-style ritual in a hall: a man with long dark hair seated on an ornate golden throne, bare-chested with a red-and-maroon cloth draped over his shoulder, hands joined in a namaste gesture. Behind him stand a row of people in orange-garlanded attire, and a large trident (trishul) stands beside the throne. Around him seated devotees, many women in red, pink, green and white saris, hold small oil lamps (diyas) and offerings, some reaching toward the throne. The crowd fills the room, with more people seated at the back among flower arrangements. The seated figure on the throne has distinctive long hair and ceremonial adornments, consistent with a person presence, but this is an appearance-based label only.2015-12-27 +1 copiesDecember 27 20152015-12-27 +1 copiesIndoor ritual gathering in a hall filled with seated devotees in white and orange clothing.
