A photograph of a satsang stage with a man seated on an ornate gold throne with red cushions. He wears a yellow turban, a red sleeveless garment with a yellow shawl draped over his shoulders, red trousers, rudraksha beads and a gold bracelet, with hands folded in his lap. Two gold carved side pedestals hold flower arrangements, and a cameraman's monitor and camera appear at right. A large backdrop shows red autumn trees and a sunset-colored landscape beside a stage banner. A raised hand is partly visible at left of a person in light blue clothing. Attribution: the yellow turban, red garments, rudraksha mala and throne match appearance-based cues for Swamiji (probable), seated in a satsang setting. The on-screen monitor shows a small image of the same figure, which is not counted as a physical person.
