Outdoor stage event under a peaked canopy with blue and white swags. A large backdrop banner shows a printed portrait of a man with a swept-back orange turban and an orange-robed figure seated on a gold-and-black chair in front of it, a rudraksha mala in hand. A seated orange-robed person in front of the stage is bent low near the platform. A standing orange-robed man at the right edge of the stage gestures with joined hands. A table in front holds flowers and ritual items. Flower garlands line the stage front and gold pillars frame the backdrop. The banner text reads the Bhagavad Gita satsang title. The backdrop portrait is printed, so it is not a physical person.
