A large satsang hall with a pale pink wall and a tiled floor holds thirty to fifty seated devotees, mostly children and young adults in white dhotis or sarees with gold borders, alongside others in orange robes. In the centre a man in an orange garment with a rudraksha mala sits on a red-brown throne-style chair, smiling and gesturing as he speaks. A golden staff stands beside the chair, and framed pictures hang on the walls. A woman in pink walks through the back of the room. Visible readable text is limited to a small blue sign reading 'Guest Room' above a doorway.

Around them sit many devotees in orange and saffron robes and white dhotis with gold borders, some with rudraksha malas and kumkum or vibhuti on their foreheads, listening attentively. A red-cushioned seating area and stacked red mats are visible at the back, with golden pillar carvings and a framed sign on the wall.

A man with long, swept-back dark hair and an orange-brown wrap sits on a red leather throne-style chair at the top, elevated above a crowd. Around him many people sit closely together on the floor, most in white dhoti-style garments with gold borders and white kurtas, some in saffron/orange robes and rudraksha malas, one in a red shirt. Foreground figures are seen from behind, some with red and yellow sashes, and a small table with a red cloth and a microphone-like device sits near the seated man. Appearance-based cues of a long-haired figure in a shawl on a throne are present, so the seated man is a probable Swamiji candidate.2015-07-28A seated teacher in a rust-orange robe with long dark hair sits on a red-cushioned throne-like seat before a gathering, holding a small ceremonial object in one hand and speaking into a microphone on a stand.
