A photograph of an ornate stage set for a satsang. A central golden throne with a golden canopy umbrella holds a seated figure in orange robes with hands joined in greeting, a red-orange cloth draped over the seat and a garland of yellow flowers across the throne. Flanking thrones on either side hold deity murti statues adorned with garlands of flowers, one in white and red, the other with a multicoloured garland. Brass trident and ornamental standards stand beside the thrones, and a dark blue curtain backs the stage. The stage is polished white with orange cloth spread across it.
