A photograph of a seated congregation of men in a hall during a satsang session. They sit cross-legged on blue-and-white striped mats along a pale yellow wall with marble trim.

A photograph of a large seated audience inside a hall, mostly men in white shirts and dhotis-style white clothing, with some in red, yellow, pink and green checked or plain shirts. Many wear lanyard-style identity badges around their necks. Several have vertical sandalwood or vibhuti marks on their foreheads. They face forward, attentive, watching an unseen speaker or ceremony at the front. White plastic chairs fill the foreground and rows behind, with red pillars and framed pictures on a wall in the background.

Photo of a seated congregation in an orange-walled hall with a red-and-cream floor and metal railing. Men in white shirts and dhotis, one in a cream shirt with a red shawl, and others in striped shirts and dark trousers sit cross-legged on mats in the foreground. Behind the railing, women in white and coloured saris sit in rows. Several men wear rudraksha or pendant necklaces. A person in white stands at the far back near a doorway, and a small wall display is visible. No one wearing identifiable a person-style regalia is clearly shown, so the identity is uncertain. Roughly thirty-plus people are visible.
