Night photograph of an outdoor stage set for a Bhagavad Gita satsang discourse. A seated figure in orange robes sits on a cream and gold chair at the centre of the stage, flanked by floral arrangements and a small table with a laptop. Orange and maroon draping frames the stage, with rows of speakers and strings of marigold-yellow tassels hanging from the canopy. The backdrop is a large banner with Tamil lettering and a peacock-feather design, and a printed portrait of a smiling man in an orange turban and orange robes sits at the right edge, captioned in Tamil and labelled as a portrait. Two standing fans and a podium with a microphone stand at the sides. The seated figure is too small and distant to confirm identity from appearance, so the in-person label is uncertain.
