A photograph of an evening satsang in a temple-style hall. On a raised stage, a figure in orange robes with long dark hair sits on an ornate gold and red throne, speaking into a microphone, identified by the page as Swamiji; the figure wears orange clothing and a rudraksha-style necklace. Behind the throne are deity murti adorned with garlands of red, yellow and white flowers, a gold canopy above, and gilded images with garlands and a decorated gold palanquin-like seat on the right. Dozens of seated devotees in white, cream and yellow clothes face the stage, with a few in pink and orange. Oil lamps and offerings sit near the floor in front of the crowd.
