Photograph of a crowded hall during a seated programme. In the foreground a person in white clothing with a grey patterned head covering faces away from the camera, seated near gold-cushioned chairs. Centre, a woman with dark hair in an upswept style wears an orange-brown shawl, a red bindi, and a gold pendant, and stands with her hands pressed together as if in namaste. Behind her, a large audience stands clapping and smiling, many in white with orange and red garlands. A camera tripod stands at the right edge. No clearly identifiable a person figure is visible, so no candidate is claimed.

A large indoor assembly of hundreds of devotees fills the hall, most seated facing a central raised golden throne. On the throne sits a man in a rust-orange wrap with a rudraksha mala draped over his chest, hands pressed together in prayer and eyes closed. Beside him stands a tall golden ceremonial staff, and two golden lion figures flank the throne. Devotees wear white, orange and saffron garments, and a large screen above shows the stage. The scene resembles a darshan or satsang gathering.2016-05-13December 08 20152015-12-08December 09 20152015-12-09December 14 20142014-12-14A large seated audience of dozens of participants fills a hall during a workshop session.
