A seated teacher in an orange robe sits on a white cushioned throne-style chair on a raised stage before a dark maroon curtain, a microphone stand beside her. Seated devotees in white clothing on orange mats face the stage, many raising their hands; one man in a light yellow shirt sits at left and a woman in white sits at right. A small podium with a microphone and a white speaker stand flank the stage. Some attendees wear yellow garlands. This appears to be a live satsang or question session.
