A large crowd of devotees fills a bright hall during a satsang, many seated close together and gazing forward. Most wear white or off-white clothing, while several men in the foreground wear orange or saffron cloths over bare upper bodies with rudraksha malas around their necks. Many have white vibhuti or sandalwood marks on their foreheads, and some wear red bindis. Behind the seated rows, more people in white stand and sit near a raised stage area with red and orange draped decor and gold-toned poles. The foreground is dense with faces, and the background shows a white backdrop and additional attendees. No single leader is clearly identifiable from appearance.2017-07-07May 28 20172017-05-28July 02 20172017-07-02 +1 copiesJuly 07 20172017-07-07June 01 20172017-06-01A large seated congregation fills an ashram hall with cream walls and a red-and-gold wall hanging.
