A man with short grey hair and a grey moustache speaks into a handheld microphone at a public event. He wears a white collared shirt, a red bindi on his forehead, and a multi-strand rudraksha mala with a light-coloured seed garland draped over his shoulders. A badge is clipped to his shirt pocket. Behind him, decorated pillars with painted yellow, blue and orange panels rise beside a white tented ceiling. The appearance is not clear enough to confirm the a person candidate, so this is a person speaking at a function.

A photograph of a seated devotee at a large crowded satsang hall. A man with white hair and a full white beard wears a yellow-orange headband, a white kurta and a dark rudraksha mala with a second mala on his wrist. Around him, other attendees in white clothes and rudraksha malas sit close together, with a red-clad figure visible in the background. The audience is dense and mostly out of focus.

A man with short grey hair, a grey moustache and a small orange-red tilak on his forehead stands speaking into a handheld microphone. He wears a white collared shirt and a brown rudraksha mala with a flower garland around his neck. Behind him, a tall decorated pillar painted with yellow panels, elephant figures and geometric patterns stands in a white tented hall. No clear identity cue for a person is visible, so the speaker is described by role only.

He looks down at an open palm held out in front of him, against a deep red curtain. Visible hands and a partial figure at the left edge suggest a seated ritual setting.
