A dim, night-time photograph of a large seated audience on a striped floor mat at a meditation convention. Many people, most in white kurta or shirt clothing with lanyard identity badges and small bags, sit cross-legged or kneel, some writing or holding notebooks and papers. Several women wear white saris with gold borders, pink and orange salwar or sari tones. Most attendees are facing forward toward an unseen stage, and the background is dark.

Men in white shirts and dhotis sit among them, and one man at the right wears an orange saffron shawl. Some people in the front rows hold their hands together in prayer. A young girl and a small child sit near the front. Faces are lit by the dim evening light, and a white banner or screen is visible in the upper background. The crowd fills the frame, with many more people standing at the back.2013-03-10August 24 20142014-08-24A photograph of a long row of seated devotees along a riverbank at dusk, most dressed in white kurtas and white clothing, with a few in saffron, orange and yellow garments. Many sit cross-legged on mats and hold small booklets or papers, heads bowed in reading or chanting. The olive-green water of a river or pond reflects the dim light on the right. The scene suggests a group satsang or sadhana session, with a few figures in the foreground partly cut off by the frame.2009-09-27A large outdoor gathering of seated delegates at dusk beside a water body with stone steps. Many people wear white clothing and white lanyard badges, while some women wear saris in yellow, teal, red and pink. Several hold papers, notebooks or small items and appear to be reading or writing.

Several men in the foreground wear white shirts and white dhotis, some with rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and lanyard badges. A man in glasses at the lower right holds his hands together.
