A photograph of an indoor satsang-style gathering. On a gold-and-red throne at right sits a figure with long, swept-back dark curly hair wearing a flowing saffron-orange robe, receiving an offering on a brass tray with fruit, and holding a rolled paper. Seated in front on a chair is a smiling man in white dhoti-style clothing with an orange shawl, holding a small white booklet. A kneeling man in an orange t-shirt and khaki trousers holds a rolled scroll, and standing attendants in white shirts and orange or yellow shawls surround them. A dark curtain and a red mat appear in the background. The swami on the throne shows probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair and saffron robes, seated on an ornate throne as the one receiving devotees.
