A large hall with patterned red-and-gold carpet where many people sit cross-legged in rows and small groups, mostly dressed in white with orange-red shawls or wraps. Several in the foreground are seated with notebooks or papers. At the far end, a lone figure in white stands at a lectern on a raised stage framed by dark red drapes and a golden valance, with a backdrop of illuminated panels. The scene resembles a seated satsang session with attendees listening attentively.

A large seated audience of devotees, mostly women, fills a hall facing a stage draped in deep red. Many wear white or orange clothing, and some have red shawls draped over their shoulders. On the stage, a figure in orange robes with a red turban sits on a gold-trimmed throne in front of a decorated backdrop, with a small oil lamp beside him. Two large screens on either side show a close-up of a smiling man in a red turban, orange robe and rudraksha beads. Cameras on tripods are set up at the front of the hall.
