A woman with hair in a bun, wearing a dark short-sleeved t-shirt and black pants, performs a balancing yoga pose with bent knees and palms pressed together at her face, in front of deep red stage curtains. Behind her another person in black clothing is partly visible, and people sit barefoot on striped mats in the foreground, with water bottles nearby, during a yoga session.

A woman with dark hair in a ponytail sits on an orange yoga mat, wearing a black t-shirt and black pants, a dark pendant necklace and a silver bracelet, one hand in a mudra and the other resting on her knee, eyes open and gazing sideways. Behind her, others sit on colourful mats (orange, green, pink, blue) in similar meditative poses during a yoga or meditation session on a tiled hall floor. a person is not visibly present in the frame.

A woman stands centred in front of a red curtain and pale wall, with potted green plants at the sides. She has her palms pressed together in anjali mudra above her head, arms extended upward. She wears a sleeveless black top with a black wrap tied at the waist, a red thread necklace with a rudraksha bead and a white shell-like pendant, gold bangles and a red bindi. A stage-like indoor setting suggests a satsang or yoga session. No a person candidate is visible.

A photograph of a shaved-headed man performing a deep squat yoga posture on an orange mat in a plain room with a cream wall and a dark blue curtain at left. He wears an orange short-sleeved top, orange trousers with black side stripes, wire-framed glasses, a red bindi, and a dark rudraksha mala around his neck. His hands are clasped behind his head, elbows wide, with bare feet on the mat. a person candidate appearance is ambiguous given only orange sportswear and no crown, long hair, or ceremonial gold necklace, so identity is uncertain.

A photograph of a seated group practising yoga on orange and pink mats in a hall. In the foreground a woman in a black top and black leggings sits with eyes closed, arms extended and hands in a mudra. Beside her another woman in black, with hoop earrings, extends her arms forward. A young boy in black and red wrist threads sits at right, and more participants in black and orange-banded clothing fill the rows behind, some with arms raised. No ceremonial figure is clearly identifiable in the visible frame.

A shaved-headed man in a grey sleeveless top and beige trousers performs a squatting yoga posture on a dark mat on a pale floor, hands flat on the mat and gaze lowered. A white vertical forehead mark and a brown bead mala with a small gold pendant are visible. A red curtain and a potted plant stand behind him. The setting suggests a yoga session, but his identity is not established by appearance, so no a person label is applied.

A woman in a black top and black wide-leg trousers performs a yoga pose on a red mat, supporting herself on her forearms and toes with her back arched and hips raised. Behind her, a golden throne with red cushions and a golden deity murti stand against a red and gold temple backdrop. Golden pillars and ornate carved figures frame the hall.

A woman in black fitted athletic clothing performs a headstand (sirsasana) on a tan yoga mat on a dark stage. Her forearms rest on the mat, her legs extend straight up, and a small string of wooden beads lies on the mat beside her. Behind her hang black stage curtains, a white floor-standing air conditioner, a flight case, and a red-and-orange image on a projection screen at left, with a magenta drape at right. The stage is for a yoga demonstration.
