A photograph of a satsang setting. On the right, a man with long swept-back dark hair and a white vibhuti mark on his forehead sits on an ornate gold throne, wearing an orange and saffron silk garment and a large garland of green leaves, pink and yellow flowers. He smiles and gestures toward a man in a white kurta and a visitor badge who holds a silver tray of purple flowers. Behind them, a woman in white with a yellow shawl and a shaved-headed man in white stand near a wooden table with a tray. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long hair, a vibhuti mark, saffron clothing and a flower garland, consistent with the page's claim.
