Three men sit with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed, in a hall with red chairs and golden deity murti behind them. They wear white kurta-style clothing with red-orange shawls draped over their shoulders, and each has tilak marks on the forehead. The man on the right wears a silver wristwatch and rings. A partially visible figure with a red shawl sits at the left edge. Behind them, a red and gold backdrop and ornate deity figures fill the frame.2014-05-10August 01 20142014-08-01April 23 20162016-04-23May 09 20142014-05-09May 21 20152015-05-21July 25 20142014-07-25A photograph of a crowded indoor gathering in which devotees stand in white dhotis and white kurtas with orange saffron shawls draped over their shoulders. In the centre, a man in a white shirt with an orange-and-dark-patterned sash stands with his palms pressed together in namaste, eyes lowered, a wristwatch visible on his raised wrist. Behind and beside him, other devotees clap or fold their hands, some wearing conference-style badges on lanyards. Blurred golden decorative elements and pillars appear in the background of the hall.2016-05-11March 14 20172017-03-14Two men sit in a close row with palms pressed together in anjali mudra, eyes lowered in prayer. The nearer man in front has short dark hair, a red-brown rudraksha mala around his neck, and wears a white dhoti-style garment with a gold border over his shoulder; a white horizontal tilak marks his forehead. The man behind him, also in white with a gold-bordered cloth and white tilak, has a shaved head. Soft-focus lamps glow in the background and a blurred figure sits further back. No a person candidate is clearly identifiable among the visible people.2011-11-18A large seated gathering of devotees in white kurtas and dhotis, most wearing orange-red shawls and red lanyards, sitting in rows with palms pressed together in anjali mudra and eyes closed in meditation. A bald man in the centre foreground, with a vertical tilak mark on his forehead, is seen with hands folded. A teenage boy beside him wears a rudraksha mala and a wristwatch. Men of varied ages fill the rows behind them, some bald or grey-haired. No central teacher or throne is visible in this frame, and no printed name appears on the scene itself. The setting appears to be an indoor satsang or Inner Awakening hall.2015-05-21A photograph of a seated satsang gathering. In the foreground, a bare-chested man with long dreadlocked hair, a vertical tilak on his forehead, rudraksha mala and red dhoti sits with palms pressed together in anjali. Beside him, a man in a white kurta with a rudraksha mala and tilak sits with eyes closed, hands in anjali. Behind them, many seated devotees wear orange and saffron robes and white or green clothing, with a boy in a patterned shirt and a person in teal kurta visible. The scene suggests a devotional or meditative assembly. No identifiable a person is clearly present; the dreadlocked man's appearance is ambiguous.2017-01-04 +1 copiesSeptember 16 20162016-09-16
