Indoor satsang hall viewed from the back of the room, with a large crowd of devotees seated on orange cloth-covered floor and standing along the left. A figure in orange robes sits on a yellow-orange cushioned throne on a raised white platform at the centre of the stage, flanked by a white canopy with maroon drapes. Many men wear white kurtas and white dhotis; some hold their hands together in prayer. On the right, women in white and yellow saris stand near a row of seats. Stage lights hang from the ceiling and the scene reads as a satsang with darshan.
