Photo of a satsang in a hall with a gold-and-red throne draped in marigold and multicolored flower garlands. A long-haired man in a blue dhoti-style wrap and a gold necklace sits on the throne, appearing to address the gathering; a person appearance-based candidate with long swept-back hair and ornate gold necklaces. To the left, a blue-robed deity murti stands on a gold pedestal with garlands. Seated in front, a woman in a cream sari with a red bindi and an older man in white ritual clothes with a rudraksha mala attend a plate of offerings with apples and small silver bowls, while younger attendees in white saris and an orange-clad person sit nearby.

Photograph of a satsang hall where a man with long dark hair, wearing a sky-blue sleeveless garment, rudraksha-style gold beaded necklaces and a bare upper body, sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne draped with garlands in yellow, purple, red and white. Beside him is a bronze-coloured statue of a standing figure in blue robes and a blue turban, also garlanded and set in a gold arched frame. Seated devotees in the foreground include a woman in white with a mala and a woman in a sari and mala bowing their heads. A blue drape hangs behind, and a small table holds fruit and flowers. Only the seated man is a physical person on the throne; the statue is not a person.2010-12-26December 26 20102010-12-26December 26 20102010-12-26December 18 20102010-12-18December 26 20102010-12-26December 26 20102010-12-26A seated man in a golden throne (peetha) decorated with a horseshoe-shaped arch of marigolds and roses in yellow, red, purple and white, with red cushions at his sides. He wears a sky-blue saffron-style wrap over bare shoulders, a heavy gold multi-strand necklace, a gold armband and a red bindi, with long dark hair and hands folded in his lap in meditation posture. A microphone stands at his right, and a dark blue draped backdrop fills the background. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, ceremonial gold necklaces and a blue ceremonial wrap, seated on the throne as the satsang speaker.2010-12-26December 23 20102010-12-23A seated man in a pink dhoti and pink shawl, wearing a long gold-and-beige bead mala and a sacred thread-like necklace, sits on a gold throne (peetha) decorated with a large arch of marigolds and roses in purple, yellow and white. His hands rest folded in his lap. In front, several devotees sit on orange ground cloth: a woman in red blouse and white sari with hands joined in namaskar on the left, a woman in a green and cream sari, a bald man in white dhoti with a striped shawl seen from behind, and a woman in a white sari with a yellow shawl on the right. Silver and brass vessels and a plate of fruit sit beside the throne. Blue curtains form the backdrop. Title and excerpt indicate an ashramites satsang, but this is an appearance-based candidate only. The seated figure fits some appearance cues: pink and orange clothing and a bead mala, but the face is not used for identification.2010-12-26November 18 20102010-11-18 +1 copiesDecember 26 20102010-12-26December 26 20102010-12-26
