January 16 20132013-01-16Photograph of a satsang hall where a seated teacher in orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions on a raised stage, speaking to a large audience. Rows of devotees sit cross-legged on red and patterned mats, mostly in white clothing, several with shaved heads. Hanging banners with orange tassels and multicolour patterns frame the stage, and a pedestal fan, tripod cameras and monitors stand near the platform.

Visible crowd appears to be roughly 20 to 30 people.2011-01-21Photograph of a satsang hall where a large seated audience, mostly men in white shirts and dhotis, faces a raised stage.
