A photograph of a large hall filled with rows of white plastic chairs, mostly occupied by women seen from behind, many with long braids. Foreground figures wear yellow, cream and light blue saris and salwar. On a raised stage with maroon drapes, a seated figure in orange-yellow robes sits on a white-draped platform beneath a white arch, with a camera operator on a tripod at the left edge. Woven elephant-motif banners hang on the side walls, and a standing fan sits near the stage.

March 13 20082008-03-13March 13 20082008-03-13March 15 20082008-03-15Photograph of a seated audience in a tented hall facing a stage with a dark red curtain. Dozens of people in white clothes, some in pale or pink saris, sit on white plastic chairs in rows. On the stage a standing figure in an orange robe stands beside a white draped seat with a flower arrangement on a small table. A camera on a tripod, a floor fan and a whiteboard are visible at the sides, and yellow and blue decorative hangings hang from the tent roof. The image is the photo kind, with a tent interior and seated audience, and the standing figure in orange is a plausible candidate for the page-referenced guru, but his face and features are not clear enough to confirm identity.2008-04-12Rear view of a seated audience in white plastic chairs facing a stage in a hall with maroon curtains and decorative woven panels with elephant motifs. On the stage, a figure in orange-saffron robes sits with palms pressed together in namaste on a white throne-like seat with a glowing white backdrop, a small vase of flowers beside it. A cameraman in a white shirt and brown vest films from the side of the stage, and a standing fan is visible at left. Many attendees wear white and pastel clothing; one man in a yellow shirt and another in a grey-brown shirt sit in the foreground. The seated figure on stage matches the page's account of a person discourse, but the face is not clear enough to confirm identity, so the appearance is uncertain.2008-03-13October 27 20082008-10-27A photo of a large hall during a meditation programme at an ashram, with many women seated on the floor in white saris and white dresses with long braided hair, facing a stage.

Some attendees hold books, and a blue blouse stands out among the white clothing.2009-08-29March 13 20082008-03-13A large tented hall with white canopy and hanging decorative pillars painted with elephants and geometric patterns in yellow, blue and red. Several hundred seated audience members in white chairs face a stage draped in maroon curtains with gold trim. On the stage, a figure in saffron-orange robes sits on a white throne-like seat behind a small table with lamps and flowers, while a speaker stands at a microphone to one side.

At the far end, a small figure in orange robes sits cross-legged on a raised white platform before a maroon curtain with gold trim, with a microphone stand in front.

Banners and a display board stand at the sides of the stage.2008-06-22Indoor photo of a satsang hall with rows of seated devotees in white clothes on white plastic chairs, facing a stage. A standing figure in orange robes stands at the centre of the stage, in front of a dark red curtain, with a white throne-like seat and a flower arrangement beside a video camera on a tripod. Decorated yellow and red painted pillars frame the stage, and a whiteboard with writing stands at the right. Several white pedestal fans are placed among the audience. A seated person in white sits near the left foreground. The scene is a teaching or discourse session. The orange-robed figure has no distinctive a person cues such as long hair, crown or rudraksha visible at this size, so identity remains uncertain.2008-04-12
