A photograph of a seated teaching session in a hall with deep red velvet drapes. A person with long dark hair, wearing an orange-saffron dhoti-style garment and a leopard-print shawl over the shoulders, sits on a large orange upholstered throne-like chair with dark carved wooden trim, speaking into a microphone on a stand. A small table to the left holds a vase of red and pink flowers and a water bottle, and a pedestal flower arrangement sits on the right. Rows of seated students in white clothing face the stage: several shaved-headed men in white on the left, and women in white saris with braided hair on the right, some with orange or purple cloth beneath them. A pedestal fan stands at the left edge of the stage.
