A seated figure in saffron and orange robes, wearing a large gold-toned beaded necklace, sits on a brown leather throne in a hall with gold-patterned wallpaper and red-cushioned chairs. Many people sit cross-legged on the floor around him, dressed in white with orange shawls, several with hands raised or pressed together. One man in the foreground wears an orange shawl and glasses. Two people at the far left sit near a small table with a laptop. A backdrop of gold patterned wall and a grey stone-tiled floor complete the scene. The central figure appears to be a statue or depiction rather than a living person, so the throne sitter is recorded as a depiction candidate with uncertain appearance.

A trident stands beside the throne and a small table with offerings sits in front. Around him a large seated audience in white and orange-saffron clothing, many wearing orange shawls, listens or sits with hands folded. Posters line the upper walls. Swamiji (probable) is present in the centre, identified by long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala with ceremonial gold pendant, and saffron clothing, seated in the role of discourse-giver. Crowd is large, with many attendees visible.2015-10-12July 16 20152015-07-16A discourse session in an indoor hall with pale pink walls.

He has a dark topknot and a white forehead marking. Around him, a seated audience in white clothes and orange-red shawls sits on red mats; some hold notebooks and water bottles, and several people face him with attentive postures.

A figure in orange-saffron robes and a maroon shawl sits in an ornate brown leather throne at the centre, with a laptop and a small orange-draped stand in front. Many devotees in white clothes with red-orange shawls sit in rows on the floor around him, several with hands raised to their foreheads or heads. A tall silver stand lamp stands to the right, and a small table with a vase of flowers appears at the left edge. Whether the seated figure is the a person cannot be established from appearance, so the central person is described by role only.2016-02-16 +1 copiesOctober 19 20152015-10-19A large seated group of devotees, many in white kurtas and red-orange shawls, raise both hands to their heads in a shared energy-darshan gesture in a hall with red upholstered chairs. At the centre, a man with long dark hair, a gold necklace and a red-orange wrap sits on an ornate brown throne-style chair, smiling, with a rudraksha-style mala and gold jewellery; the appearance is a probable match for Swamiji in a presiding role. Surrounding people wear white, blue, pink and orange clothing, and a small table with a microphone stands in front of the throne. A watermarked-style copyright line is visible in the lower right, and the archive source line is printed along the bottom edge.2015-07-21February 22 20162016-02-22 +1 copiesA seated man in orange and saffron robes sits in a large brown leather armchair on an orange-draped dais in a hall filled with devotees. He wears a long rudraksha-style mala and a large pendant, and has a tilak on his forehead. Around him, devotees in white clothes and orange-red shawls sit cross-legged on white mats; several wear beaded garlands and lanyards. A trident stands to the right, and a laptop sits on the dais. Behind them, display panels and a red backdrop with a banner fill the room, and a small deity murti stands on a shelf at the upper left. The scene looks like a satsang or discourse.2015-10-10
