A photograph of a ritual in a satsang hall. A figure in orange robes, with an orange headcloth, a rudraksha mala and gold necklaces, sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, hands folded, with a person identification by appearance. A man with a shaved head and white dhoti with gold border holds a silver multi-tier lamp aloft while facing the throne. Two women sit on the floor: one in a turquoise blouse with a floral offering nearby, and one in a green sari with a red border holding a small object. Fresh flowers and marigolds decorate the throne platform. A banner behind reads Bhagavad Gita and Nithyana Satsang, with a lit tiered brass aarti lamp to the right.
