A large seated crowd fills a hall at a satsang, most people dressed in white with some in saffron, pink, blue and purple. Rows of devotees sit close together on the floor facing forward, with small hand fans and a wicker fan visible among them. Two video cameras on tripods stand above the crowd near the centre, and red pillars and a decorated ceiling frame the room. No individual at the front can be clearly picked out as a presenter, so no a person candidate is claimed.

A large crowd of seated devotees fills a covered pandal at an event in Salem, Tamil Nadu. Most wear white shirts, white dhotis or pale clothing, with some in yellow, pink, blue and red. They sit close together on the floor and on red plastic chairs, facing toward the front of the hall. Tall white poles and blue cloth canopy the space, and a few wall banners and framed portraits hang behind them. A dense crowd of more than a hundred people is visible, many partially hidden by the people in front.

In the foreground, several men in white shirts and dhotis sit facing forward, one wearing an orange shirt and another with a shaved head and white beard. Banners and framed images hang along the side walls, and a stage area is visible in the distance. The scene suggests a seated satsang-style convention session.
