A large thatched-roof hall with white pillars holds a seated audience on orange and blue mats, most dressed in white with some in pink, orange and yellow saris. Many sit cross-legged in rows facing right. At the far right, a saffron-robed figure stands beside a flip chart and speaks to the gathering; a bolster-style seat and a maroon curtain frame the stage area. A blue-and-white chart on an easel behind shows printed headings and diagrams. The scene reads as a guided satsang or meditation session. The robed speaker shows no visible long hair, crown or rudraksha cues sufficient for an appearance-based identification, so the speaker is described by role only.
