Indoor photograph of a satsang and healing setting with marigold-style garlands strung along the ceiling and pillars. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a matching saffron head wrap, with a rudraksha mala around the neck, reaches toward a silver plate of yellow fruit held by a woman in a white sari with a yellow floral print, a red bindi and gold bangles. Behind her stand several men in white shirts and dhotis, one in a red-and-orange checked lungi, and a young boy. A woman in a pink floral sari stands at left, and white floral garlands drape a red-clad figure at right. Appearance suggests a person seated in saffron with rudraksha; the seated figure's identity is uncertain from appearance alone.
