A photograph of a large seated congregation inside a hall, most people in white clothing with red-orange shawls draped over their shoulders. In the foreground a bare-chested man with curly dark hair sits with eyes closed and hands together, wearing a gold-toned pendant. Around him women in white and men in white sit cross-legged, several with eyes closed in meditation. Water bottles and a small kalasha-like vessel sit on the floor. A bright red-and-gold backdrop is visible behind the crowd. The scene appears to be a satsang or initiation gathering. No one in the image is clearly identified as a person by appearance.

Several bare-chested men in the front row wear red-orange garlands and white dhotis, some with painted markings on their chests. Women in white saris and salwar sets sit among them, some wearing glasses and bindis. A wooden doorway with a red-painted frame stands in the background.

No single figure presents with the clear, multiple cues needed to identify a person candidate, so the appearance is uncertain.2017-07-05 +1 copiesAugust 16 20172017-08-16 +1 copiesJuly 06 20172017-07-06Photograph of a large seated audience of devotees in white clothes and rust-red shawls, sitting on the floor in a hall during a satsang or meditation session.
